- This was a long time ago, I have not done it since I was ten, says Pudas about the effort, which he gives the rating "decent".

But it was not entirely unexpected.

- He had warned me before, that I would have to make some changes.

Now it was the whole match instead, Pudas continues.

- But it was fun to try.

"Behaved well"

Federation captain Johan Garpenlöv was pleased with the effort.

- He behaved well, he says.

- We have had a bit of bad luck with injuries and have not reported people.

We felt we needed to spread the ice age, he explains the decision to give Pudas a new role.

And if Pudas can stay as a forward?

Possible, but not the dream situation, according to Garpenlöv.

- We hope that we get more forwards here so we can fill four chains with forwards so that Pudas can play back, he says.

Follows orders

The main character himself says that he can imagine continuing to play as a forward, if necessary for the team's sake.

- If "Garpen" wants me to play there, I will do it, he says.

Pudas was noted for an assist in the match that Tre Kronor won 6-0.
