Three teams have moved away from the others in Sweden's second highest series in ice hockey. Karlskoga, Björklöven and Modo top the table and warm-up Karlskoga, who was tipped outside the top three for the season, has grabbed the top after a new victory, 6-1 at home against the crippling last AIK.
Karlskoga, who has played more matches than both the two Björklöven and the third Modo, certainly ended up with a score of 0-1 just over seven minutes into the first period but then scored four straight goals in the second period and subtracted to 4-1.
A new nightmare for AIK.
-I don't know what we do, we stop playing total and let in four really cheap goals. The plug is out of line, AIK's Johan Larsson told C More during the second period break.
Karlskoga extended the lead with two more goals in the final period and eventually won by 6-1.
It was the heatmen's third straight victory.
Even the second Björklöven had a good evening and won with 5–3 at home against the White Horse. American points king Justin Crandall was scored for two goals, just like Vita Hästens Arvid Degerstedt, and Björklöven are two points behind serial leader Karlskoga with a match less played.
Trean Modo, who will meet the four of Västerås at home on Wednesday, is three points behind Karlskoga with two matches less played.
