Daniel's and Victoria's friends, olympic and world champions and former NHL stars Peter Forsberg and Mats Sundin were chosen to "100 Greatest NHL Players". The list was published yesterday during the NHL All Star Weekend. The 100 Greatest NHL Players is a centerpiece in honoring 100 years of NHL hockey. A Blue Ribbon panel comprised of distinguished members of the hockey community - including executives, media members and NHL alumni - selected the list of esteemed players.

Mats Sundin_ 100 Greatest NHL Players _ NHL.com

In addition to Forsberg and Sundin, two other Swedes, Börje Salming and Nicklas Lidström were chosen to 100 greatest NHL Hockey players.
Mats Sundin couldn't attend because he has just became a father again, but Peter Forsberg is in Los Angeles during the festivities. He came directly from Kenya, where he spent the last few weeks recorded "Det stora äventyret" (The great adventure) for TV4. Forsberg's partner Nicole Nordin flew to Los Angeles from Stockholm.
Foppa can't reveal anything about the shooting and how the great adventure has gone, but he looked suitably tanned and tuned out.
- It was an adventure, more I can't say. But now I'm here, and for me it is great to be on this list. For me it is huge, even if I realize that I may not be in the top ten, but I'm somewhere on the list. I think it's great to be a part of this group and meet everyone here this evening. Most I have played against, and some I've played with. They are all fantastic players, who I looked up to.
How fun it is that there are four Swedes on the list?
- It's fun, of course. Too bad Sudden (Mats Sundin) could not be here, but he has become a father again.
What happens to you during the rest of the weekend?
- I'll play Saturday's celebrity match and then just relax with Nicole here in Los Angeles a few days.
How did you find out that you have been voted to the 100 list?
- Gary Bettman called and searched me and I thought he would yell at me that I had said something nasty about the World Cup last autumn. But then I called back and was thrilled when I was told that it was about this.

Victoria's friend since childhood, Caroline Kreuger Nilsson, spoke about her new jewellery collection to Svensk Damtidning. So far Caroline has used butterflies in many of her jewels, but this collection is inspired by feathers.
- I have always loved feathers but there is so much going on today, so it comes to finding "your feather" and the use of one's own idiom. It has taken time, but now I have created a feather that I love, says Caroline.
The collection is called "Summer Feather" and is as always made of 18k gold and diamonds. And just as before, nature has got the creativity to flow.
- Nature is something that inspires me a lot. I was out walking one afternoon with my dog ​​and met a young grey swan, it looked at me, and I decided there and then to release the exclusive part of the "Summer Feather".
Caroline takes part throughout the entire production of her jewellery. These are slightly bigger than some other variations in her previous collections. And the bigger jewellery is something that reflects Caroline's own taste.
- I love big jewelry, in the winter and summer. One challenge has been to make large earrings which do not weigh as much. My Poppy-earrings and Grand bouquet earrings are similar to Summer feather in size.
Since Caroline started a career as a jewelry designer, many famous people have chosen to wear the familiar butterflies and flowers. Among other best friend Crown Princess Victoria. And anyone who chooses to dress in Caroline's jewellery has a special place in her heart.
- I have a huge love for all jewelry which I do, so when people wear them I am happy. It's probably what keeps the energy and the joy of life. Working is very time consuming, especially since you also have to have time to be a wife and mother at the same time.

One of king Carl Gustaf's closest friends, count Carl Adam "Noppe" Lewenhaupt, 69, is dead. He and the king were childhood friends.
He was found in the water outside Gärdet in Stockholm yesterday.
A person who was out walking with a dog discovered shortly after 12 o'clock on Wednesday a body in the water outside Hundudden, farthest out on Gärdet in Stockholm.
- We received a call from the emergency that there was a body in the water. Rescue and ambulance were sent to the scene and the body was recovered. It was a man born in 1947. There is no suspicion of a crime, says Carina Andersson at the police regional command center in Stockholm.
The body was transferred to the forensic examination, and on Wednesday the relatives informed about the death.
Now the family confirms that it was the entrepreneur and restaurateur Carl Adam "Noppe" Lewenhaupt, one of King Carl XVI Gustaf's best friends, who was found dead.
- The family can confirm that Carl Adam Lewenhaupt has died. "Noppe" is the warmest person we ever met. He was a wonderful person and is infinitely misset, says family and closest friends in a joint statement.
According to Aftonbladet's information Lewenhaupt was reported missing by relatives after a dinner on Tuesday evening.
"Noppe" Lewenhaupt leaves behind his wife Lee, a stepson and a large group of friends who are now in sorrow.
Carl Adam ”Noppe” Lewenhaupt, 69, död _ Aftonbladet

King Carl Gustaf commented the death of his friend to the media in Lahti at the Nordic World Ski Championships:
- I found out about it late last night and it's obviously a tragic event that has happened. It is something we are very sorry about. It's one of my oldest friends and we have had very nice and fun time together, says the King.
They have known each other since childhood. Together with Anders "Aje" Philipson and Anders Lettström Noppe formed a trio who stood closest to the king.
- He was a real joker in the truest sense. We have had many good laughs together. I want to send a thought to his wife, and all who have been close to him, said the king.

Noppe Lewenhaupt's family has decided that the exclusive membership club Noppes will not be closed.
"Everyone's dear and beloved Noppe has left us. We have lost a loyal, generous and fun-filled friend. Although Carl Adam" Noppe "Lewenhaupt no longer remains, Noppes has, however, no plans to close its doors. Noppe is no longer with us - but Noppes lives. His love, energy and humor will be with us a long time. He leaves us with many fond memories of his humor, enthusiasm and thoughtfulness. Something we fondly cherish", the club writes.
Expressen has been in contact with the family which doesn't want to make any further comment, but greets that Noppe's stepson Leonard Johansson will run the club now.

Svensk Damtidning told a couple of days ago that over 700 people are expected to attend Carl Adam "Noppe" Lewenhaupt's funeral. The sources tell that the planned memorial after the funeral is cancelled. To arrange a memorial service for about 700 people is not easy to arrange, while Noppe's family is in great sorrow.
- Noppe was so incredibly popular and obviously the family don't want to have to exclude someone at a time as this. Then it is better to simply cancel, says a reliable source to Svensk Damtidning.

Svensk Damtidning reported as the first media that singer Carola Häggkvist is performing at the funeral. Carola had a private relationship with Noppe. She dated for a long time one of Noppe's close friends, Christian "Kicken" Lundqvist. During the relationship Kicken and Carola were often seen at Noppes club together. And the three of them arrive to events together.

Andrea Brodin tells at her blog that they are moving to Lidingö in the fall, they have found a perfect house.

Emma Pernald and her family live in Lidingö too.
 
Victoria's and Daniel's friend Karl-Johan Persson, ceo of H&M, told today that H&M is launching its eighth brand and investing heavily to get its clothes faster into shops as the Swedish fashion retailer responds to sluggish sales growth.
Arket will be launched this autumn, starting with a shop in London, and will offer more expensive clothes than H&M for men, women and children as well as in-store cafés based on the new Nordic cuisine.
The new brand will offer “quality in simple, timeless and functional designs” as well as homeware but will also sell clothes from other brands.
Persson said that H&M also needed to improve its supply chain, becoming faster to market with its clothes: “The world has changed a lot with people buying digitally. At the same time the H&M group has become more complex with different markets, different needs, online sales. We see a great opportunity and necessity to improve the supply chain to become more speedy.”
