Back after injury – then Dick Axelsson decided Djurgården's away game against Kalmar, 4–3, in Hockey Allsvenskan.

Nice, it was a bit of revenge for the post hit before and all the other bad shots. The sun rises sometimes too, he says to TV4 Play.

Djurgården lost 2–0 to 2–2 and then 3–2 to 3–3 before the 37-year-old scored the winning goal after 1.13 minutes of overtime.

I take all the goals I get, I'm old and tired, I'm fighting on.

Axelsson, who left Djurgården in the spring of 2022 but is now on his third stint with the club, played his first game after the injury in mid-October.

Damn it's been boring, but also useful to train the body, he says.

I came here to play, just eight so far, but now damn it I'm going to keep playing.

The contract with Djurgården extends over the season.
