Magnus Nygren
Swedish ice hockey player
Magnus Nygren (born 7 June 1990) is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenceman for Färjestad BK of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). He was selected in the fourth round, 113th overall, by the Montreal Canadiens in the 2011 NHL entry draft.
Playing career
On 21 May 2013, he was signed to a two-year entry-level contract with the Montreal Canadiens. During his first season in North America in 2013–14, Nygren was assigned to American Hockey League affiliate, the Hamilton Bulldogs. However after 16 games Nygren opted to return home to play on loan with Färjestad BK on 27 November 2013.
Nygren returned to the Bulldogs for the final year of his contract with the Canadiens, however was limited to 15 games due to injury. At season's end, Nygren unsurprisingly returned to Färjestad BK on a one-year contract for the 2015–16 season on 8 May 2015.
On 12 April 2017, Nygren agreed to a one-year contract with HC Davos of the National League (NL). On November 3, 2017, Nygren was signed to an early one-year contract extension by HC Davos.

Why this record matters
“Magnus Nygren” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Magnus, Nygren 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 Jul 27, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q522615. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1990, 2011, 2013 and 2015.
A concise life account rarely captures disputed attribution, private networks or the changing language used to describe a career. 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.
