It was snow chaos and they decided to play 3×30 minutes. After the second period, Hammarby remained in the dressing room and refused to come out.
– There are rules about how long breaks can be and there is a risk of injury to get out. You see nothing, said Hammarby coach Misja Pashkin to MVT.se
In the end, the Hammarby players came out and the match could be called off at 10.30pm. Normally, the match should have finished at 21.45.
The first “playoff match” already on Friday
Hammarby had a golden opportunity to secure a place in the round of 16. Now instead, Broberg, who won at home against Gripen 5-2, is waiting in a directly decisive match to reach the playoffs in Stockholm on Friday when the regular season ends. Both teams are on 19 points.
– For us, it’s all about winning, Zinken is tough and Hammarby is good at home. It’s awesome to play a game like that, says Broberg’s coach Andreas Westh to Bandypuls.
