We all know that Nicklas Lidstrom is not only one of the two best defensemen to ever play the game, he's also The Perfect Human. In his early years, long before his emergence as the league's top defenseman, Nick Lidstrom played for Vasteras IK, which was located in his hometown. TSN's BarDown posted an article stating that Vasteras IK has gone bankrupt:
It's been over 20 years since Lidstrom played for his hometown team, but that doesn't mean that the team doesn't have a special place in his heart. According to their website, the team is bankrupt and the overall deficit is around 4-5 million.
