At the conclusion of his entry-level contract with the Dallas Stars following the 2018–19 season, having spent the entirety of his North American career in the AHL with affiliate, the Texas Stars, Hansson opted to return to his original hometown club, Rögle BK of the SHL. He signed a two-year contract on April 24, 2019.[3]
