Björklöven did what was expected of them when they went down to Kristianstad. One against the river, and twice as many points in the table for Björklöven.

But after all, the Umeå team only had a 1-0 lead for the third period. After a knock, there was still hope for Kristianstad to come back, which they also did early in the third when Malte Setkov acknowledged 1-1.

However, the birch leaf would be too strong once it was decided. In powerplay, Fredric Andersson dotted 2-1 with just under seven minutes left, and when Justin Crandall made 3-1 the game was punctured even though the home team would get a puck with nine seconds left of the match.

Overtime was required in the summit

In the summit between Karlskoga and Timrå it was as tight as in the table between the two teams. Timrå, who was four points behind Karlskoga before the match opened well, and went away to a 2-0 lead. But Karlskoga came back, and in the end, an extension was required at the score 3-3.

And there it was Fredrik Forsberg who with his second goal of the match and 19th goal of the season decided to Karlskoga with a real cannon in powerplay.

- A good hit I can say. It felt all over my body so it sat nice, says Forsberg to C More.
