The Dala team is in a tough situation in the qualifiers against HV71, which are about staying in the SHL. After three straight losses, only a win will do when the clubs face each other on Tuesday.
Leksand will have to play without Anton Johansson.
The defender received a match penalty in the last meeting and the disciplinary committee decided that he will be suspended for two games - which means that Johansson will have to sit in the stands as Leksand fights to stay in the SHL.
It's sad, of course. These are the kinds of matches you want to play and you always want to be there and help the team, he tells Expressen.
We have to win four games. There is nothing else.
