Magnus Nygren started off our conversation by apologizing for not answering the phone when I had tried to contact him earlier in the day. He had just woken up the day after Färjestad's first SHL quarter-final game (a 3-1 loss to Luleå). What follows is a thoughtful, honest, and open conversation.
Did you arrive home late last night?
Nah, it wasn't too bad, we had chartered a jet. But I couldn't sleep and it is nice to be able to catch up on sleep during the day.
Will you be watching the games tonight?
