Career
She graduated from the University of Minnesota Duluth in 2013 and played for the Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs, five-time NCAA Division I national champions.
She missed three and a half weeks of the 2018-19 season due to a concussion, returning just in time for the playoffs.[4]
In October 2019, just 7 games into the season, she suffered a severe concussion, the third in three years, forcing her to miss the rest of the 2019-20 season.[5][6] A year later, in October 2020, it was announced that she would be starting a position as an expert commentator for C More's coverage of the SDHL.[7]
In 2024, Winberg joined PWHL Boston as an assistant coach.[8]
International
She won a silver medal at the 2006 Winter Olympics. She scored the game-winning goal in the shootout against the American women in the semi-final game, where she was Sweden's youngest national player. She would later become the last remaining player from the silver-medal winning 2006 Swedish Olympic team to retire.[9]
At the 2010 Winter Olympics, Winberg recorded an impressive five goals in the tournament including four against Slovakia and one against the powerhouse USA.
