Swedish goalkeeper in rare start
Kucherov made his way inside the castle and tried to shoot but the cross bounced to Hedman who shot directly from close range. In the same attack, Hedman had just before shot at the post. He also played until a goal.
Tampa goalkeeper Jonas Johansson, with the past in Brynäs, saved 18 shots in just his third start this year. He had to stand when Andrey Vasilevsky rested.
