It was a roller-coaster season for Jacob Olofsson. While it finished on a high with Timrå earning the qualification to the SHL on a 4-1 series win over Björklöven, it was mostly downhill for the Montreal Canadiens prospect throughout the season.
Starting the season with Skellefteå AIK, a team that went on to finish fourth in the SHL, Olofsson was moved to the wing because of the centre depth of the team, and he was not really comfortable in that position. This led to a chance to leave Skellefteå AIK and join his old team, Timrå IK, a team that was rolling through the second division, HockeyAllsvenskan, with their sights set on a return to SHL through the promotion process.
