When the signal went and announced that the first period was over, the shooting statistics were 16-3 in favor of the home team Skellefteå.
However, Färjestad resisted, not least through goalkeeper Anton Holm, and to his great surprise, Jonatan Berggren was sniffed at a lead goal.
Berggren took his own return and thought he had scored for the eighth match in a row, but after video review, the goal was ruled out.
He was considered to have prevented Holm by driving on his club - but Holm eventually had to capitulate anyway.
The clock stood at 13.01 in period two, a period where Skellefteå continued to wash out chances, when the deadlock was broken via Jonatan Johnson.
Played by Oscar Möllet, Johnson put 1-0 through a direct shot.
The goal was the only one of the match and Skellefteå is back on the winning track.
After two straight victories, they lost in the last race.
Färjestad, in turn, gets to see his suite of straight victories broken.
