No, the start of the 2019-20 season has not been at all what HV71 had hoped for.

Tonight came the team's sixth loss in the first seven games of the season.

Already after two and a half minutes, Olle Lycksell gave visiting Färjestad the lead, and 2.27 later, Martin Johansson increased to 2-0.

Short extension

However, HV played up and had before the period been over both reduced and equalized.

2-2 then stood all the way to extra time.

However, the extra time was only 19 seconds long, when Jacob Nilsson took care of Jacob Nilsson's fine pass and arranged an extra point for FBK - and a new heavy loss for HV71.

- We have no one else to blame but ourselves, we must do better.

Right now it feels damn heavy, says a very disappointed Simon Önerud to C More.

- Right now I see the phase nothing positive if I am to be honest.

It feels like we lose two points.

We have the chance and create many good situations.

But we are not desperate enough.
