Örerbro HK's netminder Eero Kilpeläinens recently sustained an injury. The team is looking for a replacement, and, according to Hockeynews.se, HC Davos' Anders Lindbäck is one of their targets. However, their request has apparently been denied so far.

The team manager of the SHL-team does not want to comment on the matter.

Lindbäck joined Davos in September and has made 25 games so far for them, posting a .901 save percentage and allowing 3.35 goals against on average. The Swede has spent multiple seasons in the NHL and the AHL and also has SHL-experience.
