Wikstrand got into his first game in Sweden since being loaned to SHL club Färjestad, and answered some questions for the media after the game.
On Wednesday, the Ottawa Senators announced that prospect Mikael Wikstrand would be loaned to Swedish club Färjestad for the rest of the year. Thus ended a long stalemate between the player and club. Wikstrand had collected money from a signing bonus from the Sens, but had suggested he was not interested in playing in Binghamton. He broke the details of that contract to return to Sweden, but later revealed that he'd returned because his brother had just been diagnosed with leukemia.
