For his main tackle on Luleå's Jonas Berglund, Lias Andersson was suspended for five matches at the beginning of this month.
In tonight's meeting with Brynäs, he was back for his HV71 and when the team ended up at a disadvantage, it was he who equalized with 07.07 on the clock.
On a return, Andersson stayed ahead and put 1-1, which was the dividend after HV71 showed good tendencies after the setback goal.
Goal after goal
The home team then drummed on and put 2-1 in boxplay via Simon Önerud and 3-1 through Alexander Bergström - still in the first period.
It was also Bergström who put 4-1 in the middle of the second period, before John Persson scored the reduction 4-2.
In the third period, the match gained even more momentum.
Brynäs won the technical via Greg Scott, who then led 4-3 with 33 seconds played.
Arell punctured the match
Anton Wedin shaved 5-3 from close range after a pass from Axel Holmström, but Persson reduced and the match was alive again.
However, Niklas Arell would puncture a bit into the middle of the period when he turned around and scored his first goal of the season - 6-4.
It was also the end result in Jönköping and just like in Karlstad, where Färjestad beat Örebro 7-3, scored ten goals.
