The team took a historic point away against Skellefteå in the SHL debut and also led by 4-3 ahead of the final period. But they fell by extension by 5-4.

- We measure well over 60 minutes. There are some individual mistakes that we must minimize, says Håkan Åhlund.

Now a sold-out home town awaits and a situation above for many in the team.

- We must have the right tension. We have never attended a home premiere in SHL. It is so different how you manage it depending on what experience you have. The tension must be right and then it is just out and about, says Håkan Åhlund.

The coach looks forward to the crowd support and the sold out hall.

- That's what we need them for. They should be our extra players and we should feel a tremendous sense of security at home, ”he says.
