The Christmas ham is eaten, the Christmas must is drunk and the rest is finished.
On the second day, Leksand greeted Rögle, who has had a reasonably good knockdown with two straight losses and also lost to Nils “Zorro” Höglander to the Vancouver Canucks.
Dennis Everberg broke the zero early when it was 1-0 already after three minutes of play. In the second period, Everberg became a two-goal scorer with a 2-0 goal, but Leksand brought the match to life.
“He has come down to earth again”
Like so many times before, it was Marek Hrivik. The scoring machine came back after a couple of games away and showed its class by lifting the puck on the cross, which meant a reduction.
But Rögle would go into the period break with a two-goal lead. Five minutes before intermission, Adam Tambellini made it 3-1.
– I think it looks better and that we have come down to earth again. We play easier and we don’t make it too difficult, we do it well, Mattias Sjögren tells C More.
“Strong to get out of here with three points”
In the third half, the LIF forced after a reduction and came close several times, but Christoffer Rifalk was like a wall and the match finished 3-1. Thus, Rögle returns to the winning track, at the same time that Leksand collects the third defeat in the last four games.
– It was a perfectly good game for us, but we were a bit late. We threw the records away with a bit of ease, we should have been able to hold the record a bit longer, but yes, an approved effort, says Röglestjärnan Daniel Zaar to C More and continues:
– It’s a profit to build on. The main thing is that we won because we wanted to reverse the negative trend. It was important and strong to leave here with three points.
Dissatisfaction at Leksand
Unsurprisingly, there were no happy faces in the home team Leksand after the loss. Coach Björn Hellkvist is critical of his team’s performance.
– The effort is not good enough. I think we should be able to challenge Rögle better, but we are not. They took the Christmas food faster than us … I think there are many more. Slow passing game and we don’t take direct shots either. That’s not enough, the coach exclaims to C More before continuing to say:
– The tempo was not there, it was too slow a tempo, and that with both teams I think. But Rögle is probably happier than I am.
