"I think we had problems setting up the intensity in the beginning, just like the first game against Tappara. I don't think we played good enough in the first period 'cause we made a couple bad and late calls which caused us trouble. In the second period though we stepped up a bit and made the snatch we needed to win the game.
One reason to our hesitant start might be that our roster have been splitted a lot the latest week with players who have been out on trips with national teams, players who have been injured etc.. That of course have made an impact of that we haven't been able to practice with full lines etc. Of course that isn't the whole truth and there's other reasons that we didn't play as we should have, but we made it and advanced to the quarter finals!
I can't say we have any special knowledge about IFK Helsinki yet. We met them in European Trophy last year but we don't know nothing more than that. So we have about a month to study videos of them to get as prepared as possible."
Andreas Johnsson MVP for Frölunda.
