I'm just trying to throw it in on goal. It's not the prettiest goal, but I'll take it every day of the week, says Hampus Karlsson, who scored the winning goal 2.43 into the first overtime period, to TV4 Play.

Oskarshamn, eighth in the regular season, will also play their next match at home.

We have to start a bit better. We can't be down 2-0 in every match. We've had a bit of flow and been able to turn it around, says Karlsson about the continuation.

Karlskoga coach Dennis Hall:

Of course it's sour. We're playing too much into their hands.

In the match series between Djurgården and Mora, the Stockholm team now has match ball to reach the semifinal. This after Djurgården equalized late to 2-2 away and took the match to overtime. There, defenseman Colby Sissons stepped forward and scored 3-2 just before ten minutes were played.

Djurgården leads 3-0 in matches and can decide on away ice on Saturday.
