Barely six minutes into the third period, at position 1-1, Forsberg started a raid from his own defense zone.
In a two-on-one situation with compatriot Calle Järnkrok, he chose to surprise goalkeeper Joonas Korpisalo and go to the finish.
- I was probably also going to play Calle but the hill did not hit me as hard as I thought so suddenly I felt that I was in a good position, he says to Aftonbladet.
Satisfied with the start of the season
After that, Järnkrok was able to close the match with his 3-1 goal in an empty cage.
Forsberg was pleased with the start of the season in a Nashville that re-furnished the player squad.
- Yes, the new guys, several of them more physical in their game, have come in nicely in the group and we had a really successful camp.
We spread it on tonight.
I think it can be really good.
