"HV71 is only visiting the Allsvenskan."

Simon Önerud told SVT Sport before Friday's hockey Allsvenskan premiere at home against AIK.

Jönköping, which wants to see itself as a hockey-crazy city, suddenly has its big team in the second highest division.

But the club has invested heavily and the ambition is to take the lift up to the fine room already in the spring and let the stay in the hockey allsvenskan be as short as it can.

"Tried to have some fun"

But the start of the season got off to a somewhat difficult start, because it was AIK who led after the first period.

- I just tried to join the attack, got a puck and then I do not really know what happens.

I tried to have some fun and then it went in, Eric Norin said humbly to C More about his goal.

The truth was that Norin got the puck outside the offensive blue line, advanced centrally in the court, dribbled away HV-back Nichlas Torp with a pirouette, before he with a backhand nicely lifted the puck into the net.

Strong middle period

The second period barely had time to start before Norin was a two-goal shooter.

This time, however, the goal was not as elegant.

The AIK defender slid over the offensive blue line and sent off a wrist shot that Jonas Gunarsson weakly let in under his left arm.

But HV71 would show offensive strength and turn around the result within ten minutes.

Jonathan Davidsson put first, team captain Simon Önerud equalized and Tyler Vesel completed the turnaround until 3-2 to HV71 after 40 minutes played.

The final period was goalless.

This despite the fact that AIK pressed for an equalizer when with three minutes left to play they got a numerical advantage and chose to pick the goalkeeper.

In game six against four, it smelled like 3-3 in HV71's zone for a long time, but the Jönköping team kept out and won their hockey Allsvenskan premiere.
