Full stands – 8,094 spectators with black and yellow sympathies – finally got to celebrate a win.

Djurgården equalized both once and twice, but only 51 seconds after Ludvig Rensfelt's 2–2 goal, Oskar Magnusson scored 3–2 for AIK.

Then, less than six minutes of the third period remained. Scott Pooley quickly added to 4–2, the American newcomer's third goal in four matches.

Very nice, it doesn't get much better than this, says AIK goalkeeper Jonathan Stålberg to TV4 Play after his first Stockholm derby.

It was very loud, it was a new experience. Extremely cool and we have to thank for the support.

After a slow start to the season, AIK now has five consecutive wins and is in fifth place. Djurgården falls to seventh place in the table, where Björklöven is pushing at the top.

On Wednesday evening, "Löven" also treated their home fans to a new record. Mora was defeated 11–0 – the largest margin of victory ever in HockeyAllsvenskan, according to TV4 Play.
