After two periods in the fourth quarter final, Färjestad led the shooting statistics with 26-8.
This meant above all that they dominated the physical game against Skellefteå.
It is praised by Jonas Andersson.
- I did not think that Färjestad would play this well.
This is something huge, I think.
In the first two periods, Färjestad goes out and dominates completely.
They drive over Skellefteå.
They play ice hockey that I have not seen an SHL team do this season.
It's weight, creativity, skating and they win every single melee, he says and continues:
- Skellefteå wants to be creative with the puck, but they get no time.
Färjestad completes every tackle and they have such high speed on the skates.
One of those who leads the team in the physical game is Gustav Rydahl.
- We play as we should.
We are physical and irritable and then they do not get much time.
It's just working hard, it should go the way, he says.
Tomas Mitell, who took over as coach during the season, was pleased with his team.
- I thought we were really good in two periods.
Good intensity and good skating.
I am very happy with the performance and we won fairly.
