Forward veteran, Swedish champion with Brynäs 2012, was recruited on a short-term contract during Saturday and debuted directly for Malmö.
First and foremost, it's fun to be here, but sour with a loss. This team will never give up, says 34-year-old Wännström to TV4 Play.
When Malmö on October 2 defeated Örebro at home in the seventh round, it was the fifth straight win.
The team was third in the table and had recorded the best season start in seven years.
But since then, everything has turned.
Long absence list
The losses have been lined up and before Saturday's meeting with Växjö, the loss streak was six matches long and Malmö's absence list contained seven names, including the two top centers Janne Kuokkanen (suspended) and Robin Hanzl (injured).
Considering that, Malmö made a strong effort against top team Växjö.
18-year-old Isac Nilsson gave the home team the lead after his debut goal in SHL and at the end of the second period, team captain Fredrik Händemark equalized to 2–2.
Strandberg decided
In between, Karl Henriksson and Sebastian Strandberg (in numerical disadvantage) had scored goals for Växjö, which pushed back the home team, but where Malmö goalkeeper Daniel Marmenlind played a great game.
But it wasn't enough all the way to break the loss streak.
Sebastian Strandberg decided with his second goal for the afternoon when just over two minutes remained of regular playing time and then Reid Gardiner set 4–2 in an open net.
