Örebro Hockey's women's team lost their final two matches in the hockeyallsvenskan this weekend, against teams they are likely to face in the playoffs. Despite a strong season with 20 wins in 26 games, coach Evelina Husar cautions against drawing big conclusions from the weekend.
Örebro Hockey's women have had their strongest season since the restart of operations, with 20 wins in 26 matches and points in 23 of them. However, this weekend the team earned zero points in the two final matches of the hockeyallsvenskan southern division, against opponents likely to be met in the playoffs.
One of the losses was away to Hammarby, ending 5-2 (3-1, 0-0, 2-1). Details of the other match are not specified in the reports, but the context suggests similar opposition.
Coach Evelina Husar downplays the significance: 'I wouldn't draw too big conclusions from this weekend.' The team has transitioned from the youth operations to the main club and built a solid foundation. These losses are viewed as a temporary dip ahead of the upcoming playoffs, where Örebro Hockey is expected to be competitive.
