SHL jumbo Malmö's crisis is getting deeper.
Against Skellefteå, the team lost 4-3 with two minutes left to lose 4-5 after extra time.
It was the team's eleventh straight loss at home.
It is not entirely unusual for teams in crisis to choose to make changes on the coaching side.
However, it is not something that Patrik Sylvegård thinks about.
- I believe in Tomas Kollar.
It's a tough situation for him too.
It's his first year as head coach for real.
I think he's doing the right job, he says to SVT Sport.
- I don't believe in changing coaches.
If I hadn't believed in Kollar, I would have said so.
I don't think that's where it is.
We have to get everyone to take the next step.
Then we will become dangerous.
SVT Sports expert Håkan Loob believes that the team needs better stability at the back, and would like to see the team put more powder on the back side if they intend to make any new acquisitions.
- It's easy to say that you want to be at the forefront and score goals.
But I'd like to say that if they're going to wish for anything, it's a really good back.
Maybe not someone who scoops up points, because that's hard to come by.
But someone who really adds a bit more stability to the backside.
