- Ulf Nilsson (né le 11 mai 1950 à Nynäshamn en Suède) est un joueur professionnel de hockey sur glace. Au début de sa carrière, il joue pour l'AIK IF de Stockholm dans son pays. En 1974, il rejoint l'Amérique du Nord et passe quatre saisons avec les Jets de Winnipeg dans l'Association mondiale de hockey en compagnie d'un autre suédois, Anders Hedberg, mais également du célèbre Bobby Hull. Étant une des premières vedettes européennes du hockey en terre nord-américaine, il est l'une des principales attractions de l'AMH de 1974 à 1978. Il rejoint ensuite les Rangers de New York dans la Ligue nationale de hockey pour trois saisons qui sont gâchées par des blessures. En 1981, il quitte le circuit majeur pour jouer en ligue mineure ; d'abord avec les Indians de Springfield dans la Ligue américaine de hockey puis avec les Oilers de Tulsa de la Ligue centrale de hockey.

- Ulf "Lill-Pröjsarn" Gösta Nilsson (born 11 May 1950 in Nynäshamn, Sweden) is a former professional ice hockey player who played for the Winnipeg Jets, the New York Rangers, the Springfield Indians and the Tulsa Oilers. Part of the first major wave of Europeans to star in North American hockey, he was a major star in the WHA from 1974 to 1978. He scored at least 114 points in each of his four seasons in the upstart league, finishing third or fourth among overall scorers every time. He led the WHA with 85 assists in 1976–77, and tied Marc Tardif for the lead the next season with 89. Along with countryman Anders Hedberg and established superstar Bobby Hull, he played a starring role as the Jets won Avco Cup titles in 1976 and 1978. In the 1976 playoffs, he scored 26 points in just 13 games.In the summer of 1978, Nilsson and Hedberg signed with the NHL's New York Rangers for $2.4 million, further weakening the struggling WHA which would cease operations after just one more season. Nilsson's NHL career was marred by injuries due to a hit by Denis Potvin of the New York Islanders, which is remembered by the "Potvin Sucks" chant that takes place during every Rangers home game at Madison Square Garden. He was limited to 160 games in his three full seasons with the Rangers, though he scored an impressive 163 points in that time. He scored 8 goals and 16 points in the 1980–81 playoffs as the Rangers advanced to the semi-finals before being eliminated by their cross-town rivals, the defending champion New York Islanders. He did not play in the NHL during the 1981–82 season, but returned to the Rangers lineup for the final ten games the following year.
