It remains two weeks until the premiere in HockeyAllsvenskan, which will take place on Friday, September 19th.
Both teams that were set against each other on Friday in Västerås are teams that have a lot to prove this year.
Västerås will be a stable (more stable) team aiming for playoffs under Peter Andersson. Södertälje has been clear: it is SHL that applies.
The veteran settled on his own
But on Friday it looked like it was the other way around. Because then Södertälje went on a loss in ABB Arena.
Västerås went on a knock and led by 3-0 in the second period. Kim Rosdahl, Carl Jakobsson and Anton Gradin made sure that Andreas Johansson and his staff were headed to take care of the last period.
However, William Wiå made sure to score a goal at the end of the period to keep it alive. After another reducing, Constantin Komarek showed that there is still quality in the experienced body. With two goals in the final period, he himself set the final score to 5-2 for Västerås.
The result means that Södertälje has now lost two matches during the preseason against Västerås. The previous match was decided after penalties.
