SHL promotion

Building on their 4-2 victory in Game 1, Björklöven defeated BIK Karlskoga 4-2 again in Game 2 of the HockeyAllsvenskan finals in Umeå, securing a 2-0 series lead. The win came despite a scary injury to BIK defender Rikard Olsén and a late push from Karlskoga. Former star Alexander Beliavski watched from the stands as Löven edged closer to SHL promotion.
