Gunnar Svensson (born 1956) is a retired Swedish ice hockey player and head coach, currently working as a sports agent for players like Henrik Zetterberg, Andreas Pihl and Fredrik Emvall. During his playing career Svensson played for Örnsköldsvik and IF Björklöven. He began his coaching career in Örnsköldsvik before signing on to IK Vita Hästen. Svensson coached his first and only Elitserien club when he signed on a five year contract with Djurgårdens IF in 1984. Svensson's first season in Djurgården went well, the team won the league and beat Färjestads BK in the semifinals. However, Södertälje SK proved to be too hard in the final and became Swedish champions. The following season was quite the opposite; Djurgården was close to be relegated, and Svensson was subsequently fired on 26 Janu
