Tallinder celebrated his greatest career success in the shirt of the Swedish national team when he won a gold medal at the 2013 World Cup .

Career

Henrik Tallinder comes from the offspring of the Swedish ice hockey club AIK Stockholm . In the 1996/97 season he made his debut in the first Swedish league, the Elitserien , but otherwise played in the U20 elite league. At the end of the season he was selected in the NHL Entry Draft in 48th place by the Buffalo Sabers. In the following season he was a permanent member of the AIK's professional squad, but was also loaned to the second-rate HC Piteå for six games . Until 2000 he played for the AIK and established himself as a defensive specialist who was rarely found in the point statistics. He made a leap in performance with his move to the Finnish first division club TPS Turku in the 2000/01 season . He won the Finnish championship with TPS and was able to achieve very good plus / minus statistics of +23 (main round) and +8 ( playoffs ).

After this successful year in Finland, the Sabers brought him to their farm team in Rochester , which plays in the AHL . In his rookie year for the Amerks, he scored six goals and 14 assists in 73 games. At the end of the season he was called up for two games in the squad of the Sabers, so that he made his NHL debut on April 12, 2002 . From the following season he was always a member of the Sabers NHL squad. In his first season, he scored six goals and 14 assists and was nominated for the YoungStars Game in the NHL All-Star Game .

Suspension 2005

During the lockout in the 2004/05 season , Henrik Tallinder played in his home country for Linköpings HC in the Elitserien, for which he scored 16 points in 44 games and a +30 in the plus / minus rating.

In February 2005 Henrik Tallinder, Kristian Huselius and Andreas Lilja were suspected of raping a 22-year-old. Images from a surveillance camera were used as evidence, with the help of which the three Swedish ice hockey players were identified. As a result, Huselius and Tallinder were terminated by Linköpings, while Lilja was suspended by Mora IK . In addition, all three were banned from the Swedish national team for a year .

The charges were dropped in June 2005 due to a lack of evidence, but none of the three players were recalled to the national team that won Olympic gold in Turin in February 2006 .

At the end of the season he moved to the Swiss National League A for SC Bern , for which he played in ten playoff games.

Return to the NHL (2005-2014)

In 2005/06 he returned to the Sabers and played a solid main round. He moved with the Sabers to the Stanley Cup semi-finals against the Carolina Hurricanes and suffered a broken arm in the third game of the series , so that the season was over for him. Before his injury, he led the plus / minus rating of the NHL playoffs with +14.

In the tenth game of the following season against the New York Islanders , he broke the same arm again, so he had to sit out 24 games. On July 1, 2010, Tallinder signed a four-year contract with the New Jersey Devils , leaving the Sabers after nine years of franchise membership.

In July 2013, the Swede was transferred to the Buffalo Sabers in exchange for Riley Boychuk . These did not extend his contract after the 2013/14 season, so he was looking for a new employer as an unrestricted free agent .

Return to Europe (2014-2018)

In December 2014, the ZSC Lions from the Swiss National League A signed him until the end of the 2014/15 season.

After his contract in Zurich expired, Tallinder returned to TPS Turku, where he last played in 2001. At TPS he was always one of the best scorers in the team in the following years (as a defender). The Swede ended his career after the 2017/18 season.

International

Tallinder represented his home country at the 1998 and 1999 Junior World Championships . At the 2013 World Cup in Stockholm and Helsinki he was again part of the national team and won the gold medal with it.
