Jannik Christensen (born June 9, 1992) is a Danish professional ice hockey player who is currently with Esbjerg Energy of the Metal Ligaen (DEN). He played with Frölunda HC in the Swedish Elitserien during the 2010–11 Elitserien season before returning to his Danish team Esbjerg Energy.[1]

He returned within the Esbjerg organization the following season.
