However, it looked like it could be another heavy away match for Linköping in the beginning. For already after three and a half minutes came 1-0 to Leksand. But this time, LHC would come back, and after a goal-winning first period, it was Linköping who had the lead with 3-2.
In the second period, Linköping continued to press, and then the intended leaders in the team delivered. First it was Andrew Gordon who increased to 4-2, and with two minutes left of the period it was time for Broc Little.
Little invited a candidate to this year's goal as he dribbled past a couple of players and then darted in from 5-2, which also became the final goal of the match.
