Minor Transactions: 05/08/23

May 8, 2023 at 10:23 am CDT | by Josh Erickson Leave a Comment

Today is a big day on the NHL calendar. The best prospect in nearly a decade is set to learn his fate tonight, with the results of the NHL Draft Lottery deciding who will land Connor Bedard on draft day. A flurry of transactions continues to come in from across the Atlantic Ocean, though, as European professional leagues have all largely wrapped up their seasons and are entering transfer periods. We’ll accumulate a list of those notable minor transactions right here, as always:

  • Despite heading for second-tier play next season, Swedish Allsvenskan club Brynäs IF has signed former NHL goalie Anders Lindbäck to a one-year contract extension. Lindbäck, 35, posted just a .893 save percentage in 35 games for Brynäs last season but will now attempt to gain the club promotion back to the SHL for 2024-25. The 2008 seventh-round pick of the Nashville Predators hasn’t played in the NHL since a 19-game stint with the Arizona Coyotes in 2015-16.
  • Former ECHL All-Rookie Team selection Myles Powell is opting to go down a level in Swedish hockey for more playing time, heading to the Allsvenskan’s IF Björklöven for 2023-24. The 28-year-old forward registered 15 points in 50 games with the SHL’s IK Oskarshamn last season but will return to second-tier play, where he scored over a point per game in 2021-22. Powell also recorded over a point per game across three ECHL seasons after ending his collegiate career at RIT.
  • Unsigned Arizona Coyotes prospect Emil Martinsen Lilleberg will not be returning to IK Oskarshamn next season, the team announced this morning. Lilleberg, 22, was an overage selection in the 2021 NHL Draft. The 6-foot-2 defender recorded 11 points in 46 SHL games this season and is on Norway’s roster for the upcoming World Championships. Arizona has until June 1 to sign Lilleberg to an entry-level contract before his draft rights expire.
