Växjö beat Oskarshamn after a late goal signed Tobias Rieder in powerplay at the end of the third period.

During the match, Växjö's coach Sam Hallam appeared in a yellow-blue tie.

- I think it is a small way to show solidarity with the Ukrainian people.

I hope this is started quickly and quickly over, and that someone puts a stop to that maniac, he says to Radiosporten.

- I chose the tie with care today.

Hallam, also Johan Garpenlöv's successor as national team captain after the season, explains that he spent most of his time on Thursday in front of the news.

- Everyone has their opinions on how to look at it.

In our industry, we know many who are in Russia and guys who may want to go to Russia because it is a good hockey league with a lot of money in it. It affects us in different ways, but nothing against how it has affected the people of Ukraine.
