Frölunda HC's 2006-07 Season began with many rosters moves. 11 players were lost to other teams or retirement. 7 players were acquired to replace the players that were leaving, most notably Steve Kariya and Martin Cibák. Another 2 players, Joel Gistedt and Jonas Ahnelöv, were brought up from the minors. The teams management were confident that they were going to finnish in the top as they had done many previous seasons. It didn't take a long time to see that the team would not be the bona fide, top team as they had been the previous seaons. Instead it was clear that they would be fighting for a playoff spot. On January 20, ***, head coach Gunnar Persson was relieved of his duties. On January 21, assistant coach Janne Karlsson stepped up as the new head coach of Linköpings HC, and Magnus Hävelid, previously head coach of the junior team, became the new assistant coach.
