With 20 seconds left in the first period, goalkeeper Jesper Wallstedt, for the second time this season, was sent off for playing outside the marked area behind the extended goal line.
- I did not think so at first, but then I saw that it was quite clear.
I have to focus on that, Wallstedt says to SVT Sport.
He thus broke a rule that is new in the SHL for the season.
Frölunda then got a five-on-three advantage when Juhani Tyrväinen pulled on a two-minute for an incorrect technical.
Then the guests were sharp in powerplay and Joel Lundqvist made it 1-0.
See the expulsions in the player above.
