Hugo Alnefelt
Swedish ice hockey player

Hugo Alnefelt (born 4 June 2001) is a Swedish professional ice hockey goaltender. He currently plays for the HIFK of the Finnish Elite League (Liiga). Alnefelt was drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2019 NHL entry draft with the 71st overall selection, and appeared in one game with the Lightning.
Playing career
Alnefelt was drafted in the third round, 71st overall, of the 2019 NHL entry draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning. This pick was initially acquired from the Vancouver Canucks as a part of the J. T. Miller trade. On 1 May 2021, the Tampa Bay Lightning signed Alnefelt to a three-year, entry-level contract.
With both of the Lightning’s regular goalies, starter Andrei Vasilevskiy and backup Brian Elliott out sick due to COVID, the Lightning recalled Alnefelt and fellow goalie Maxime Lagacé from Syracuse on 27 December 2021. Lagacé, with prior NHL experience, played for the Lightning the next day against the Montreal Canadiens in a 5–4 overtime Lightning win. Lagacé started again on 30 December against the Florida Panthers, but was pulled after the second period, letting in 6 goals on 27 shots. Alnefelt made his NHL debut, playing the third period in relief.

Why this record matters
“Hugo Alnefelt” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Hugo, Alnefelt and Swedish provides the most credible route into that argument.
Biographical claims are most persuasive when dates, appointments and relationships can be traced to records created close to the events described. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 7, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q69638936. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2001, 2019 and 2021.
Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
