HV71 defeated Leksand on Sunday at Tegera Arena in Game 3 of the SHL play-out series, extending their lead to 3-0 in the best-of-seven matchup. Leksand now faces elimination unless it mounts a comeback, with Game 4 scheduled for Tuesday at home. The contest saw match penalties for players on both sides.

Following a 2-0 series lead after Game 2, HV71 secured another victory in Game 3 against host Leksand, putting the home team on the brink of relegation to Hockeyallsvenskan. Leksand captain Lukas Vejdemo expressed disappointment but resolve: “Just här och nu är det såklart att vi är besvikna över den här insatsen. Men vi får väl deppa lite ikväll. Sen är det nya tag imorgon.” He remained optimistic: “Om vi spelar en sån här match till är jag ganska säker på att vi vinner,” while refuting transfer rumors and affirming his focus amid a contract that would void on relegation. Forward Max Veronneau rued missed chances: “Jag borde ha gjort mål,” but insisted, “Det är inte över förrän det är över. Vi har en uppförsbacke nu, men spelar vi så här så kan vi vända det här.” The game turned heated early, with HV71's Axel Rindell receiving a match penalty for cross-checking Leksand's Michael Lindqvist in the face around the five-minute mark of the first period—deemed “Ett väldigt dåligt och egoistiskt beslut” by TV4's Staffan Kronwall. Later, Leksand's Anton Johansson earned a 5+20 for checking HV71's Jonathan Ang (who had scored earlier) to the head. Rindell later reflected: “Det är ingen känslan man vill ha som spelare. Man vill hjälpa laget och det gör man inte så där.” Attendance was sparse except for a full, vocal north stand. Leksand hosts Game 4 on Tuesday.
