The beginning of the nightmare has gotten even worse for HV71.
The SHL club had their worst start to the season in the top league after tonight’s loss to Luleå.
– I’m really pissed off here now, says HV71 captain Simon Önerud in C More.
It was top to bottom when Luleå, with a full pot after three rounds, received HV71 on Thursday night. An HV71 with three consecutive defeats and eleven goals conceded in the bag.
And the team’s first win of the season wouldn’t come this time, either.
Luleå, who did not lose at home to HV71 in three years, went 1-0 and 2-0 in the first period. The first goal came in the power play when Jack Connolly got into shooting position and guest goalkeeper Hugo Alnefelt, who made his first start to the season, didn’t have time to move sideways.
Önerud collapsed
In the last minute of the first period, after Arttu Ilomäki expanded into Luleå, new acquisition Fredrik Forsberg scored his first goal for HV71 when he reduced. But then he got away.
When the second period ended, Luleå had a 5-2 lead. Then the HV71 captain, also a scorer, Simon Önerud, collapsed.
– I’m really pissed off here right now. We have to go out and do well, we are going to have points with us from here, Önerud told C More during the period break and continued:
– We have to win more games and take the pucks to goal, and be in their attack zone.
“We sat on the shit”
– We get these little mental avenues that are a little simple goals backwards, and then they get two quick goals. He smiles a bit against us so we have to clench our fists now, HV coach Nicklas Rahm said before the third period.
And clenching their fists was exactly what the guests did.
After 35 seconds, HV71 had dropped to 3-5 through Simon Önerud, who became a two-goal shooter, then also came 4-5. And two seconds from the end of the game, Lias Andersson received a rib hit in the tie, which took the game into extra time.
– We don’t have those margins with us, but we also get into shit before the third. If we work on that in the third period, we can do it, says Rahm after the loss.
With the defeat of the Jönköping team, he is approaching his worst start to the season in the top league: four defeats in a row. The last time this happened was in the 1998-1999 season, writes the Twitter account. domarna.se.
