Trailing 0-2 after the first period - then Linköping's coach Klas Östman saw red.

I'm both irritated and damn angry. But somewhere we have to look ahead. But it's clear that we're tripping ourselves up several times. We definitely can't afford that in the situation we're in, he says to TV4 Play.

We can lose in many ways, but this way is embarrassing.

Tough period

Linköping came to Örnsköldsvik with a tough period behind them with four straight losses. Results that have made the club one of the bottom teams in the SHL table.

The coach's anger conveyed a clear and distinct message to the players - and it produced results.

Early in the second period, Adam Hofbauer scored the reducer and Christoffer Ehn - in numerical inferiority - arranged the equalizer after 5.48.

The visitors fell behind again, but Ty Rattie managed to equalize before the end of the period.

Strandell decided

In the end, Markus Ljungh had a goal disallowed, but Linköping won anyway, after Olle Strandell's decisive goal in overtime.

It's sickly nice... There are a bit more spaces in four-on-four. I just tried to move around. It was well done by Ty (Rattie) and then it was an open goal, says Strandell to TV4 Play.

Finally, we got a win.

The victory is the club's first since the overtime win against Modo on October 17.

Newcomer and top team Brynäs let a 3-1 lead slip to 3-3 away against Malmö - but just 30 seconds later, with 14 minutes left of the game, Jakob Silfverberg scored the winning goal, 4-3, on a penalty shot.
