Rögle won the regular season in the SHL and CHL last year but has only taken one three-pointer in the first seven games in the league this year.

The runner-up in the table had a tough night against Växjo, who won 4-1.

Rögle managed to go to the first period break with 0-0, but in the second period Växjö scored twice.

Adam Tambellini scored a reduction with barely three minutes left in the match, but it was punctuated when Ludvig Nilsson in Växjö scored 4-1 in an empty net.

- I get a little worried when it looks like it does in the first period.

It is a step back today.

But it's just up to the horse again.

We will play 52 games, says goalkeeper Calle Clang.
