During the preseason, Vimmerby Hockey and Nybro Vikings participated in competitive matches. Vimmerby Hockey opened their preseason with a 2-1 overtime victory against IK Oskarshamn, highlighted by a strong performance from goaltender Isak Sörqvist. Coach Eric Karlsson noted that while the defensive structure was solid, offensive puck movement needed improvement.

In a subsequent matchup, Nybro Vikings secured their fifth consecutive preseason win by defeating Vimmerby Hockey in overtime. Although Vimmerby initially led through two goals from Anton Carlsson, Nybro responded in the third period to force overtime, where Joachim Rohdin scored the winning goal. Following the loss, Vimmerby leadership noted improvements in the team’s mentality and activity compared to previous performances.

Vimmerby Hockey concluded their preseason with a 6-2 victory against IK Oskarshamn. Goals were provided by Anton Carlsson, Johan Mörnsjö, Ludvig Andersson, and Hannes Hellberg, with Carlsson and Mörnsjö each scoring twice. Coach Eric Karlsson observed that while the team showed potential and played effectively in the first and third periods, the primary challenge remains finding a consistent level to avoid lapses seen in previous matches, such as their 9-2 loss to Nybro.
