Former Hershey Bears forward Luke Philp has signed a one-yea deal in Sweden with Farjestad BK, it was reported late last week.
Philp, who hails from Canmore, Alta., spent the entire 2024-25 season with the Bears, collecting 10 goals and 20 assists for 30 points in 58 regular season games. With the Bears having made the playoffs, Philp put up a further four points in eight games.
Having turned pro in 2019, Philp has played in a total of 281 AHL regular season games over the course of his career with the Bears, Stockton Heat and Rockford IceHogs. Philp has also managed to get into three NHL games – all with the Chicago Blackhawks – where he collected an assist.
With Philp off to the SHL, he will be someone to monitor on the offensive side of the puck. Always able to produce no matter what level he is playing at, Philp will be a nice addition to Farjestad BK when he steps out onto the ice.
