Playing career

He played in Brynäs IF 2005–2007, but moved to play with the Edmonton Oilers in the National Hockey League (NHL) before the 2007–08 season. He did not play any NHL, as he did not make the Oilers team, and only played in the AHL and ECHL. Before the 2007–08 season he returned to Elitserien to play in Luleå Hockey.[1]

After three seasons with Linköpings HC, Almtorp left Sweden for only the second time in his career, in signing a one-year contract with Austrian club, Graz 99ers of the EBEL on September 9, 2015.[2]
