Playing career[]
Wingerli as a youth played with hometown club, Lycksele SK, at the under-18 and fourth tier Division.2 level. Wingerli joined the Skellefteå AIK program as a 15-year old, making his professional senior debut in the Swedish Hockey League during the 2014–15 SHL season on 8 January 2015.[1]
In the 2015–16 season, Wingerli broke out offensively with Skellefteå AIK in the J20 SuperElit, leading the team in points-per-game, while splitting the season between junior and professional. Having secured a two-year senior contract extension with Skellefteå, Wingerli finished the regular season with 2 goals and 3 points in 38 appearances.[2] He featured in 10 post-season games, helping Skellefteå AIK reach the Championship finals against Frölunda HC.
In his fourth season with Skellefteå, Wingerli played his first full season in the SHL in 2017–18, recording 3 goals and 13 points in 52 regular season contests, playing alongside line-mates, Sebastian Ohlsson and Tim Söderlund. Despite his diminutive frame, Wingerli was inserted to use his speed and smarts in the post-season, recording 3 assists in 16 playoff games. Having secured a one-year extension with Skellefteå, in the following 2018–19 season, Wingerli saw increased ice-time and recorded a best of 14 goals and 24 points in 52 regular season games.[3]
After securing an improved two-year contract, Wingerli was named as an alternate captain for Skellefteå entering the 2019–20 season.[4] In 51 appearances, Wingerli finished fourth in team scoring, establishing career marks of 16 goals and 32 points, before the post-season was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In his second season within the leadership group, his seventh with Skellefteå in 2020–21, Wingerli featured in a top six scoring role notching 12 goals and 28 points in 50 regular season games. He collected 2 goals in 12 playoff appearances before suffering a semi-final elimination against Rögle BK.
Having made 288 SHL appearances, recording 104 career points, on 4 June 2021, Wingerli exercised an NHL-out clause in his contract with Skellefteå AIK by agreeing to a one-year, two-way contract with the Colorado Avalanche.[5]
