The floating average is re-calculated after each meeting using

the points/heat formula.12 heat is required for obtaining a floating

Vargarna and Norrköping municipality have extended the leasehold agreement with one year to get some more time to try and resolve the disagreements between

the three clubs that are based at Kråkvilan. So expect to see the final for next year's individual Swe Champ at Kråkvilan during SM-veckan.

Jacob Thorssell haver decided to remain with Västervik in Allsvenskan, however no news regarding a new team for him in Elitserien.

According to na.se, Indianerna will not renew the contracts with Artem Laguta and Mikkel Bech. Iversen is also doubtful, he wants to stay but Indianerna

says that it might be hard to fit him under the average cap,
