Kalmar HC defeated Södertälje SK 5-2 in game three of their HockeyAllsvenskan quarterfinal series, taking a 2-1 lead. Tensions boiled over in the second period, highlighted by George Diaco's provocative celebration after scoring. SSK players criticized the incident while lamenting a weak middle period.
Södertälje Sportklubb (SSK) has reacted strongly to the absence of a disciplinary complaint following a match penalty to Kalmar's Carl Johan-Lerby. Lerby was ejected after six minutes for crosschecking SSK's Teemu Väyrynen in the head area during the opening minutes of their first match. SSK sports chief Emil Georgsson called the situation 'a joke'.
