Team is $1.8 million USD in debt and owner does not want to invest anymore money into team. All contracted players are free to join any other club/league. Any decent players out there?

How can they just pack up in the middle of the season? One would think that the league would have some provision for that.

Having said that, I'll ask the same question - any decent players that might be useful either for prospects or to bolster Bingo?

Isn't it a SEL (Swedish Elite League) team, in the same category as MODO, Frolunda, etc?

I have no idea who is on their roster, their site is in Swedish and didn't have an updated roster from what I saw. The best bet is to check NHL 09's roster.

Bringing in a young Swede goalie couldn't hurt.

Another Karlsson. This one's 6'6" (198 is 1.98 m, right?). At 215 lbs he needs to put some meat on that frame, but at least he seems to have a frame.

Ah, never mind. I just figured out that Målvakter probably means goaltenders. A 6'6" 215 lbs goalie.

How old? If he's young enough, there's still time to fill out.
And even if not, he may be the proverbial "cat", with lightning reflexes, so it still may be workable.

Of course, we're probably just whistling in the wind anyhow, since anyone who was any good would have been Tier I...
