Playing career

Ahl made his Swedish Hockey League debut playing with HV71 during the 2013–14 SHL season. At 16 years of age, Ahl became the youngest player to ever appear with HV71, the ninth youngest in SHL history.[2] Following the 2014–15 season, Ahl was signed to a two-year contract extension by HV71 on May 8, 2015.[3]

In 2016, Ahl came to Canada to play one season with the Regina Pats junior team. Ahl had a good season, scoring 28 goals and 48 total points and the Pats team made it to the WHL finals. Ahl attended the Senators' development camp in the summer, but Ahl did not sign with the Senators and signed instead with Örebro HK. The Senators retain his NHL rights for one more season, when he can become a free agent.

Un-signed from the Senators, Ahl left Örebro HK after the 2017–18 season, signing a one-year contract with second tier club, Tingsryds AIF of the Allsvenskan, on 1 May 2018.[4]
