Player Biography and Trivia

Cult/Star player for AIK

Cult/Star player for Hammarby IF

Cult/Star player for Philadelphia Flyers

Cult/Star player for Sweden

Per "Pelle" Lindbergh var en av Sveriges absolut bästa målvakter. Han spelade med en exceptionell mjukhet och följsamhet i sitt målvaktsarbete.

"Pelle startade hockeybanan i Hammarby IF där han både som pojk- och juniormålvakt var förstemålvakt före den blivande världsmästarmålvakten Rolf Ridderwall

Som 20-åring valde "Pelle" att testa på spel i Elitserien och bytte då klubb till AIK. Omgående tog han över förstaplatsen i AIK:s mål då Gunnar Leidborg fick kliva åt sidan till förmån för "Pelle". Samma säsong gjorde även "Pelle" en mycket imponerade OS-turnering i Lake Placid där han och Tre Kronor fick resa hem till Sverige med bronsmedaljer i resväskorna.

Det blev bara en elitseriesäsong hos AIK för "Pelle" då han redan året därefter tillsammans med djurgårdsbacken Thomas Eriksson fick chansen till spel i NHL för Philadelphia Flyers. Trots att han utsågs till AHL:s Rookie of the Year i AHL (fick inleda i Maine Mariners) så kom det att dröja två säsonger innan han tog en ordinarie plats i Flyers.

Efter att ha gjort en helt enastående säsong 1984/85 där han bland annat utsågs till NHL:s bästa målvakt så såg både "Pelle" och alla Flyersfans fram mot den kommande säsongen. Men det skulle bara bara dröja åtta matcher in i säsongen innan det tragiska beskedet nådde hockeyvärlden. "Pelle" Lindbergh älskade snabba bilar och båtar. Något som kom att bli hans öde då han avled efter en bilolycka 11/11 - 1985.
