Playing career
In Vålerenga, he reached 367 points in 220 games, which gives him a fourth place on the club's all-time high list.
Before the 1992–93 season, he transferred to Storhamar Dragons, where he obtained 155 points in 150 matches.
Coaching career
Half-way through the 1995/1996 season, he became a manager for Storhamar Dragons, and led them to the Norwegian title, his first as a coach. In 2000 he signed with Vålerenga, and served as their coach until 2004, when he went back to Storhamar Dragons to help them get stability in a struggling team. In 2009 he signed a 3-year contract with Stavanger Oilers.[1] He left Oilers in 2016 to become the head coach of the Norwegian national team.[2] Today he is the head coach of Storhamar Hockey.
International career
He has played 96 matches for the Norwegian national team, which makes him the fifth most featured player on the national team. He appeared at five Olympics, the first in 1980 and last in 1994, becoming the second hockey player to do so after Germany's Udo Kießling.
