There were hot feelings and a big Brynäs victory in Saturday's meeting between Djurgården and Gävlelaget.
In the return meeting on Tuesday, it was again Brynäs who won the battle.
Djurgården opened the strongest.
Tom Wandell gave the visitors the lead just over two minutes into the second period.
But after that Brynäs took over.
"Gained good self-confidence"
Noel Gunler, who has just returned from the Junior World Championships in Edmonton, put 1-1.
It was followed by 2-1 from Shane Harper before Gunler was able to extend to 3-1.
Gunler, who came to Brynäs from Luleå in November, says that he has grown as a player after the championship.
- Above all, I have gained good self-confidence.
For me, it's about not thinking so much but going more on instinct, says Noel Gunler in C More during the break.
Third straight victory
Djurgården got a reduction in the last period but no closer than that came and Brynäs won 3-2.
The third straight victory for Brynäs who had a heavy autumn and winter.
- We have made a couple of good matches now.
It's just to continue working, says Anton Rödin in C More after the match.
