Description
Viggo Björck (born 12 March 2008) is a Swedish professional ice hockey player who is a forward for the Winnipeg Jets of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted eighth overall by the Winnipeg Jets in the 2026 NHL entry draft.
Playing career
Björck began playing hockey in local club Täby HC.
He joined the junior organisation of Djurgårdens IF for the 2024–25 season, and split time between the J20 team and the J18 team. Björck played 42 games in the J20 Nationell scoring 27 goals and 74 points, setting a new record for the league at only 16 years of age. His team went on to win the Swedish junior championship in April 2025. He also made his debut in the men's team in the Swedish second tier league HockeyAllsvenskan the same season and scored a goal on a pass from Patrick Thoresen on 14 February 2025 in a home game against Västerås IK.
Djurgården were promoted to the Swedish Hockey League (SHL) for the 2025–26 season and Björck scored his first SHL goal on 25 September 2025 in an away game against Luleå HF, beating goaltender Matteus Ward. During the autumn of 2025, Björck played in a junior line with Victor Eklund and Anton Frondell. In total, he recorded 6 goals and 15 points in 42 SHL regular season games, adding 1 goal and 3 points in 3 playoff games.
After Djurgården was eliminated from the SHL playoffs, Björck rejoined the club's J20 team to play in the final rounds of the Swedish junior championship. The finals were scheduled to coincide with the start of the 2026 World U18 Championships, and the Swedish Ice Hockey Association selected Björck for the national team and required his participation. Björck chose to remain with Djurgården for the junior championship finals and was subsequently barred from participating in the U18 World Championship. He later won his second consecutive Swedish junior championship title with Djurgården in April 2026.
On 11 July, Djurgården announced that Björck had chosen to sign with the Winnipeg Jets.
