Nicolai Mayer and Henrik Hetta for Malmö as well as Richard Gynge and Ludvig Nilsson for Växjö were awarded a match penalty in Saturday's meeting when a wild fight broke out between the stalls.

However, the penalty was stopped at the match penalty and no notification has been submitted to the Disciplinary Board regarding the individual players.

"Not good marketing for ice hockey"

- According to the regulations, the same assessment must be made regardless of whether the incident takes place on or off the ice. And from a judge's perspective, this event will not be reported because we do not think it is serious enough, says Thorsbrink.

Jonas Andersson thinks that the punishment is correct according to the current regulations, but that it should be changed.

- To me it is strange that it is the same punishment on the ice as outside the ice. There you should review the regulations, because I think it is a difference. As an example, not all players can get on the ice because they will be penalized. In this situation, it is actually that everyone is involved in a way I do not want to see in the ice hockey. It's not good marketing for ice hockey and nothing should happen. Therefore, I think that a penalty should be awarded as a statutory example.

"Opportunity to set an example here"

It is still unclear if there will be any punishment against the clubs.

- Me and Johan Hemlin (sports manager at SHL) will meet tomorrow and then we will look into whether any safety concerns have been breached. At the moment we have no signals that it has broken. It is an unusual situation that we want to take a closer look at and if we see something that has failed, we will report it to the competition board, ”says the Swedish Ice Hockey Association's competition manager, Olof Östblom to SVT Sport.

- This damages SHL's brand, for me it could definitely be punished, for example some kind of fine. This does not belong in hockey and SHL should do everything they can to prevent it from happening again and here they have an opportunity to set an example here.
