Halfway into the first period, Linus Sandin and Filip Sandberg came alone with goalkeeper Roman Will in Rögle. Sandin played over to Sandberg who dotted his second goal of the season.
A few minutes later it was time again. This time Sandberg staged a quick turnaround where Sandin found a prominent Christian Sandberg (big brother to Filip) who sneaked 2-0 for HV71.
- We work hard together out there and have a straightforward and simple plan. We want to be strong and take the puck towards goals as quickly as possible. It has borne fruit for us lately, so just keep going, Filip Sandberg tells C More about the chemistry of the trio.
Giant miss behind the 3-0 goalRögle had a shot in the post, but instead of reducing, the team offered HV71 3-0.
Adam Edström dropped the puck in his own zone, right in the gap on Joakim Andersson who bombed the puck behind Will in goal.
- Their guy misses the passport and picks it up for me. It's not often I go for a shot, but it went well. The first half of the period did not feel any further, it was a lot of tucking that gave them forecheck positions, Andersson tells C More.
After two straight losses, the HV71 got ice-cream with two heavy victories. First 7-1 against Oskarshamn last, and now 5-0 against table rogle Rögle.
