It was Joakim Lindström who was in charge of the goal when he dropped the puck back at the first post to a completely clean Wilsby.

- A nice pass.

I just tried to stay in front of the goal and wait for a pass, says Skellefteåbacken to CMore.

Växjö has had a tailwind for a long time and climbed steadily towards the top of the SHL table.

Shockstart

The Småland team also started the match in shock and acquired a two-goal lead even before half of the first period was played.

Assist king Joel Persson started the goal scorer in powerplay already after 1.41 when he could walk undisturbed towards the Skellefteå goal and pull up the puck in the net roof.

Andrew Calof scored his 19th point in 18 games when he intercepted the return on his own shot and coaxed in Växjö's second goal.

Växjö dominated to begin with and continued the trend from Thursday's match between the teams.

Then Växjö won 2-0 and showed again his impressive defensive game.

Skellefteå had great difficulty getting into the attack zone and once there you could rarely get in front of goal or find your way with the shots.

Sam Hallam's men sacrificed wholeheartedly and covered most of what was sent to Erik Källgren, Växjö's goalkeeper for the day.

Speed ​​of the game

But after Tuomas Kiiskinen's reduction, the home team gained momentum in the game and parked for long periods in the offensive zone.

Kiiskinen's goal after 14.34 in the opening period came after one of many control attempts by Skellefteå.

Källgren saved in the first position but the Finn lifted in the return.

Skellefteå had more and more to say about and at the end of the second period the equalizer came to 2-2.

In numerical superiority, Jonathan Berggren passed behind his back to Jesper Frödén who scored the cross behind Växjö goalkeeper.

It was Frödén's 15th goal of the season and Växjö's only other goals conceded on the team's last 20 numerical inferiors.

The end of the match was very intense and dramatic.

Both teams gave everything to be able to take home three points.

The home team took the lead in the middle of the third period through Niclas Burström but Växjö's Richard Gynge was able to equalize to 3-3 with a backhand.

The extra time seemed to end goalless for a long time but then Skellefteå's Adam Wilsby hit and decided a few seconds from the end.
