Perhaps of somewhat interest, since it is a former Flame...

Remember Akim Aliu, who had a cop of coffee with the Flames a couple of years ago? Karlskrona HK recruited him two months ago, but after only playing six games with in the SHL, he got sent away (No news on why. I saw him live a couple of times, and he wasn´t THAT bad, perhaps just not as good as the pay check...) to second tier league IK Pantern. Today he got fired from the later, after a game against AIK.

Apparently, after the game, on his way to the dressing room, he started hitting and tearing down furnitures while screaming out profanities in english. The goalie from AIK then asked what he was doing, and Aliu responded with hitting him right in the face.

- I was lucky I still had my mask on, says Erik Källgren to swedish newspaper Expressen.

Pantern has issued a statement on the clubs home page, reffering to an "off-ice incident that we as a club, and our values can´t get behind. Therefore we terminate the contract with immediate effect."
