It was in the second period that the first goal of the match came.

The puck disappeared under Brynäs goalkeeper Veini Vehviläinen and a whole lot of players ended up on top.

It was unclear for a long time whether the puck was inside the goal or not and whether the goal went right or not, but in the end the goal was scored.

Andrew Calof was noted as the goal scorer.

Växjö extended with three minutes left through the NHL new acquisition Tobias Rieder.

Brynäs also managed to reduce through Linus Ölund, but did not come closer than that but instead made Växjö 3-1 in an empty net.
