Lindlöven lost 2–5 away to Hudiksvall in the second final game of hockeyettan norra, now trailing 0–2 in the series. Captain Oliver Arle Östergren sees some positives. The situation mirrors the semifinal against Boden where Lindlöven staged a comeback.
Lindlöven is in a tough spot in the hockeyettan norra final series after a 2–5 loss (1–3, 0–1, 1–1) away to Hudiksvall on Tuesday evening. Hudiksvall now leads 2–0 in matches and needs just one more win to advance to the hockeyettan final.
Captain Oliver Arle Östergren remained defiant after the game. “Of course it’s sour to lose. But now we have something to build on, at least,” he told Nerikes Allehanda. Despite the deficit, he highlighted the team’s potential.
The situation echoes the semifinal against Boden. Lindlöven was in a similar hole then but came back with three straight wins to advance. Lindlöven showed improved play compared to the first game but fell short.
