Hans "Stöveln" Öberg (21 November 1926 – 9 March 2009) was a Swedish ice hockey player who represented his country at the 1952 Winter Olympics in Oslo, winning the bronze medal in the team competition. He also played on the Swedish team that finished fourth in the competition four years later at the 1956 Cortina d'Ampezzo Olympics. He was the brother of future Olympic silver medallist Carl-Göran Öberg. He played club hockey for Gävle Godtemplares IK,[1] with whom he won the Guldpucken award in 1957, a year after his 1952 international teammate Åke Lassas.[2] Öberg also played football and bandy, and won the Swedish bandy championship in 1959 with Skutskärs IF Bandyklubb.[3]
