The injures opened up spots for juniors; John Klingberg, Johan Sundström, Viktor Backman, and Sebastian Collberg made appearances with the senior team. Additional aid came from Frölunda's Allsvenskan affiliate Borås HC who lent out former Frölunda players Richard Demén-Willaume, Jens Hellgren, and Linus Fagemo during the pre-season.

One week before the start of the season Bäckman's rehab had a major setback as he was forced to have a second knee surgery, sidelining him for another 10–12 weeks.

Frölunda started the season by facing Timrå IK on Friday September 17 in what was designated as Elitserien's premier match, despite that all other teams had played their first round match-up during the previous two days. The game was televised nationally on TV4 and TV4 HD and had the unusual start time of 21:00 CET. Frölunda got off to a rough start as the game had barely started before Frölunda's defenceman Ville Mäntymaa suffered a serious concussion after a hit by Timrå's Ilkka Pikkarainen, which lead to a turnover and a 1–0 lead to Timrå. No penalty was called on the play but Pikkarainen received a two-game suspension after a review following the game.

Early life
Collberg was born February 23, 1994, in Mariestad, to Johanna and Jörgen Collberg.

Playing career
During the 2008–09 season, at age 14, Collberg debuted in the J18 Elit—scoring eight goals and eight assist for 16 points in 16 games—and in the J20 Elit—scoring four goals and four assists for eight points in 21 games. During the season Collberg represented Västergötlands Ishockeyförbund 1993-team, winning gold at the 2008 U16 Scandinavium Cup, with Collberg scoring one goal and one assist in seven games. In the spring he joined Västergötland's 1993-team again in Rikspucken, a one-time tournament for junior players who became too old for TV-pucken when the Swedish Ice Hockey Association lowered the maximum age from 16 to 15. As an under age player, Collberg tied sixth in scoring with seven goals, eleven points, in nine games, as Västergötland finished eight in the tournament.

The following season in the 2009 TV-pucken Collberg finished tenth in scoring with six goals, eleven points, in eight games, as Västergötland finished 13th in the tournament. In the J18 Elit, Collberg scored twelve goals, 15 assist for 27 points in 15 games, and in the J20 Elit 24 goals, 14 assists for 38 points in 24 games. Collberg made his senior debut as a 15-year old for Mariestad in Division 1, playing four games Collberg scored one goal on February 17 in a 2–4 loss at Tingsryds AIF.

For the 2010–11 season Collberg signed with Frölunda HC to play for their junior organisation. His first appearance with the club came during the Junior European Trophy, where he led Frölunda to the championship title—scoring the game tying goal and later the game winning goal in the shootout against Malmö in the final. With six goals and one assist in five games he was selected to the tournamnet All-Star Team. Collberg then joined the senior team as an extra player for a game against Tappara in the 2010 European Trophy. During the autumn Collberg played just three games with the under 18 team in the J18 Elit, scoring two goals and six points. Frölunda finished third in the south division and qualified for J18 Allsvenskan, where Collberg played five games, scoring seven goals, ten points. Frölunda's J18 team finished second in the standings and were directly qualified for the quarter-finals where they faced Leksands IF in a best of three series. Frölunda lost the first game at Leksand, and when the series returned to Gothenburg Collberg and a few other players who primarily played with the J20 team joined the J18 team, leading them to two wins at home and a place in the semi final.

Collberg spent the majority of the season with the under 20 team in the J20 SuperElit—Sweden's premier junior league. In 35 games Collberg scored 21 goals, and 23 assist for a total of 44 points, an all-time high point total for a sixteen-year old in the J20 SuperElit. Frölunda finished fifth in the south division, and missed the Top 8 for the first time since its implementation for the 2005–06 season. Frölunda qualified for the playoffs by winning the south continuation series. In the eight finals Frölunda faced Brynäs IF who finished last in the Top 8, Frölunda won the best of three series in two games after having won 11–0 at home and 5–2 on the road. In the quarter-finals Frölunda faced Rögle BK who were directly qualified after having finished fourth in the Top 8, Frölunda won their home game, lost the first game on the road but won the decisive game three in Ängelholm.

In January Collberg was received the award for 2011's best male junior by Göteborgs-Posten. On February 4 Frölunda played a home game against Timrå IK, in the second period Timrå's Nichlas Torp delivered a blind-sided hit with his shoulder, away from the play, to Collberg's head. Collberg laid motionless on the ice for a few minutes before managing to get of the ice on his own. Collberg withstood the hit without suffering a concussion, but was unable to continue playing in the game. Torp received a match penalty for charging, and was later suspended for seven games, of which three were converted into a 21,000 SEK fine instead. In total Collberg appeared in 41 games, averaging just under seven minutes of ice time per game, without registering any points. In May Collberg signed a one-year senior contract with Frölunda for the 2012–13 season. Collberg scored his first point in Elitserien on September 22 in an away game against Färjestad, when he assisted Jari Tolsa on the game winning 2–3 goal. Collberg scored his first goal in Elitserien, a game winning goal in a shootout against Timrå IK's Daniel Bellissimo on January 15, 2013 in Scandinavium. The following game on January 18 at Linköping HC Collberg scored his second goal on a penalty shot and his third goal, again a game winner in a shootout. After having picked up an assist against Brynäs IF on January 22, Collberg for the third game in a row scored the game winning goal in a shootout. Collberg signed a one-year contract extension on February 6. Collberg signed a three-year entry level contract with the Montreal Canadiens on May 21, 2013, with the intention of Collberg staying in Sweden and honouring his contract with Frölunda for the 2013–14 season.

Playing career
Nord started playing hockey in Boro/Landsbro IF, debuting at senior level during the 1973–74 season in Sweden's Division 2. During the 1974–75 season he played his second season for Boro/Landsbro in Division 2, and made his international debut for Sweden's U16 team, as well as representing Småland at the 1974 TV-pucken where he won the Lill-Strimmastipendiet (scholarship; namesake of Lennart "Lill-Strimma" Svedberg), awarded to the tournament's best defenceman.

For the 1975–76 season Nord signed with Leksands IF to play junior hockey with Leksands' U20 team. The following season Nord was brought up to Leksands' senior team in Elitserien, playing seven regular season games and five playoff games. In 1977–78 he earned a more regular position on Leksands' defence, playing 33 games and scoring twelve points. During the season Nord also played three international games for Sweden's U20 team. In his second full season with Leksand Nord again scored twelve points, and made his senior international debut with Tre Kronor, playing two games. Leksand again qualified for the playoffs, where they lost in the semifinals against MoDo AIK. After having a mediocre 1979–80 season, scoring only one goal and seven points in 34 games and going pointless in two playoff games, Nord went on to improve his points total for three consecutive seasons, including scoring a career high fourteen goals and 27 points during the 1982–83 season. Despite Nord's development into a top offensive defenceman in Elitserien, Leksand failed to qualify for the playoffs during these three season and Nord left the team to sign with AIK for the 1983–84 season.

While playing for AIK Nord's production dropped as he only scored four goals and registered 18 points during his first season. In the playoffs AIK won the best-of-three semifinal series two to one against Södertälje SK, and won the Swedish Championship in the final series against Djurgårdens IF, with Nord scoring the game-winning goal in the decisive game three of the series. In the six playoff games Nord scored three goals and four points, which made him the highest scoring defenceman in the playoffs.

Between 1992 and 1995 Nord served as an assistant coach to Wayne Fleming in Leksand.
