Early return after injury.
Then Jonathan Lecrimäki, 18, batted it straight for Djurgården.
– At last you shall play, he says in C More.
Jonathan Lecrimäki was injured during a training session at the beginning of February. Djurgården looked like they would have to do without the striker during their quarter-final game.
According to forecasts, the 18-year-old will be out for two months – but away from Karlskoga he has been on the ice.
On his return, he became the top scorer immediately.
After more than two minutes of play, Djurgården gave it a 1-0 lead after a fine pass from Marcus Kruger.
The expert was impressed
– I’m standing in the middle there on the power play and I see Kruger has a puck. Then I moved forward a bit and caught a good pass, so I just “shot it,” Lecrimaki says.
Olle Liss also scored on the power play to make it 2-0 Djurgården.
The guests eventually won the match 3-0 and are now leading the series against Karlskoga 3-0.
C More expert Harald Luckner impressed with the 18-year-old’s return.
I’m amazed that he gets into the rhythm of games and situations that are difficult to rehearse right away. He says they admire the long absence.
The fourth quarter-final between Karlskoga and Djurgården will take place on Friday 24 March.
The second quarter-final match this evening between Södertälje and Moura ended in a home victory.
After two scoreless periods, Södertälje took the lead in the third period through Lukas Karlsson. Then Södertälje held on and won 3-1.
Thus SSK reduced the match series to 1-2.
The next match will also be played on Friday – also in Scaniarinken.
