The first period at Hovet, where Djurgården faced the Malmö Redhawks on Thursday, was scoreless but plagued with moody situations. The referee handed out a total of 16 minutes of expulsion in the first period and had to go back to work even before the second period started.
Something happened when the players were heading to the ice and Fredrik Händemark had to sit for two minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct, unsportsmanlike conduct.
Dick Axelsson receives a match penalty for the second period
Djurgården’s Dick Axelsson was also shown a similar foul, but in his case it was somewhat more serious and therefore received a match penalty.
– Something happened in the player’s hall when you were coming out of the ice. They’ve been in each other’s shoes a bit during first period, says commentator Peter Backe on C More.
According to SHL regulations, match penalties for unsportsmanlike conduct must be awarded if a player has expressed himself in an offensive or derogatory manner towards a referee or official in various ways.
Dick Axelsson is automatically suspended for the next game with the game penalty, it remains to be seen if he will be sanctioned with a new suspension.
Here’s what Djurgården coach Robert Ohlsson has to say about the situation:
– He said something to a Malmö player. A word choice you shouldn’t make. Dick’s choice of words was harsher.
what do you think about it?
– You don’t have to think about that so much. Of course it is not good.
How does it follow?
– You have to accept that. This is not the first time that Axelsson has opened his mouth. It’s hard to gag it, of course. But that is not good.
Did you talk to Dick?
– I didn’t know when I hit period 2. And when I hit break after period 2, Dick had shot. That’s why I haven’t had time to talk to him.
Djurgården eventually won the match 3-0.
“How is Dick Axelsson?”
The IC More study discussed the situation and the fact that Axelsson suffered similar expulsions during the preseason, and repeatedly voices criticism of the referee.
– I have a question. How is Dick Axelsson? I don’t see any harmony in him. He has incurred expulsions during the training match off the ice, now it happens again. Such a player shouldn’t go on like this, says expert Johan Tornberg.
Colleague Petter Rönnqvist:
– I don’t know how you feel but you have made a crusade against all the judges and it is a battle you will lose. It becomes almost annoying to screw it up every season. When he’s on the ice and playing his game he has no superior, why can’t he just figure it out and let the other party go?
Händemark: “You can ask Dick about that.”
After the game, Fredrik Händemark is speechless when asked what happened in the hallway between the first and second periods.
– You can bring Dick. I won’t give anything there.
Was it a fight?
– A word fight? What was said and not said, you can bring Dick. I have no comment on it.
What did you say yourself when you had two minutes?
– Nothing.
It sounds strange if you have two minutes to say nothing.
– We exchange a few words and suddenly they give me two minutes. I did not receive an explanation from the judges and I will not get one either, says Fredrik Händemark.
