Colorado is vaporizing at the top of the left conference and has now won nine of its eleven recent games.
In the victory away against Chicago, the team's Swedes were behind all goals. Team captain Gabriel Landeskog suited two and former Skellefteå player Anton Lindholm also had an assist.
But the great delicacy was André Burakovsky's 3-1 halfway into the match. Chicago then neglected in the play-off phase with a middle zone turnover. Burakovsky intercepted the loose puck, put forward full speed and fired a quick shot in the middle of the insert. The puck whistled between the legs of Chicago's Olli Määtää and up into the net roof.
"Didn't see the puck going in"- I used to shoot so often when I was younger and saw a gap, so I thought I could test now too, says the 24-year-old to Aftonbladet.
- Although I didn't see the puck going in until I was behind the checkout myself.
The goal was Skåne's 13th for the season and the 24 points total in 31 games. Burakovsky is thus well on his way to his best season in his career. His top score is 38 (17 + 21) from the 2015/2016 season in Washington, and for the past two years he has stayed at 25.
