Two quick goals at the beginning of the third period meant that Brynäs turned around and took the lead 4–3 against league leader Växjö.

But with 2.47 left to play, Robert Rosén equalized and in extra time Växjö got a power play when Anton Rödin was sent off.

With eight seconds left of the numerical advantage, Joel Persson decided the match when he made it 5–4 with his second goal of the match.

- It is such an incredibly hard loss for us.

I am proud that we are coming back.

In the last five minutes we try to play with more puck but they get an easy goal.

I'm a little speechless that I can't help this fine team win more, says Mikko Manner, coach in Brynäs, in C More.

Brynäs has not won in Vida Arena against Växjö since February 2017 and this was Växjö's 15th straight home win against Brynäs.

- We found a way to win even though we didn't play at our best, we have to raise the performance for 60 minutes, says Växjö's Joel Persson in C More.
