Djurgården Takes Lead in Semifinals with 4-0 Victory Over Södertälje

After the initial loss, Djurgården has turned the semifinal series against Södertälje.

The 7–3 win at home on Hovet on Wednesday was followed up with a convincing 4–0 win at Scaniarinken.

Tyler Kelleher initiated the goal scoring and Linus Klasen added to 2–0 before the first period was over. Colby Sissons made it 3–0 before Klasen became a two-goal scorer, when he set 4–0 in an empty net.

It's fantastic to win, of course, and that we've managed to turn the series to 2–1 in our favor. It's important that we don't get comfortable, but keep working now, says goalkeeper Hugo Hävelid, who kept a clean sheet, to TV4 Play.

Best of seven matches applies and the next meeting will also be played in Södertälje, on Sunday.

The winner of the Hockey Allsvenskan playoffs will play in the SHL next season.
