New York. Buffalo had a bit bad against bottom team Anaheim.
Then Viktor Olofsson took over the show and decided the event with two goals.
– I’ve been feeling really good in the last 10 matches, says the Ångerman native, who has already broken his personal goalscoring record with a total of 21 hits.
The Keybank Center intern started on schedule for the Sabers, who are trying to catch up in the Eastern Conference and definitely need a win over teams like the suspended Anaheim. They excelled in the first half and went into the second half with a 2-0 lead.
But in others they lost focus and let the ducks dance, and after another 20 minutes it was 3-3.
– Yes, we recovered and made it difficult for ourselves and hit a lot of wrong passes. They’re very skilled in their team, says Viktor Olofsson, so they’ve been able to use that when he meets the media next.
Six goals in six matches
– But we finished all the best.
Above all, ‘Golovsson’ finished himself really well. It was he who clinched the game with a 4-3 and 5-3 as before – to no one’s surprise in Western New York. The 27-year-old Angerman native has been remarkably hot lately, scoring six goals in his last six matches. In total, he hit 21 complete hits, a new personal record – with nearly half the regular season left to play – and ranks second in the Swedish shooting league.
– I’ve felt good in the last 10 matches and I’ve done that in my entire series. Casey Mittelstadt, Tyson Jost and I have developed really good chemistry.
Rasmus Dahlin was again excellent and contributed two assists which ended in a 6-3 victory.
