Noah Philp retires, ends HV71 contract before SHL season
Canadian forward Noah Philp, 27, announced his retirement from professional ice hockey, terminating his recently signed 1+1‑year contract with Swedish Hockey League club HV71. Philp said his motivation for the sport was no longer sufficient and chose honesty over continuing to play without full commitment.
During his brief NHL stint he appeared in 32 games for the Edmonton Oilers and Carolina Hurricanes, recording two goals and three assists. He also contributed to the AHL Chicago Wolves, posting 17 points in 29 regular‑season games and 14 points in 21 postseason contests. HV71 will now seek a replacement centre for the upcoming season.
