# Jacob Josefson

> Jacob Peter Josefson is a Swedish professional ice hockey player. A centre, he currently plays for Djurgårdens IF of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL). After Josefson began playing hockey at the age of five, he was acquired by Djurgården's youth organization at the age of ten, where he also began playing junior hockey in 2005. Josefson made his Elitserien debut on 28 February 2008, against Timrå IK, and became a regular member of Djurgården's senior team. His achievements in the Swedish Elitserien drew attention from NHL and he was selected in the first round of the 2009 NHL entry draft by the New Jersey Devils, 20th overall. Josefson played with Djurgården for an additional season, before signing with the Devils in May 2010 and played for them until 2017 when he left for the Buffalo Sabres. He returned to Djurgården in 2018 and played three seasons before being forced to retire due to injuries. In 2025, Josefson made a comeback to professional hockey playing once again with Djurgården.
