No Comments According to Aftonbladet’s information, a big fight between Djurgården’s coach Johan Garpenlöv and leading players must have broken out before the third period against table giants Karlskoga. How bad is it really in Djurgården? Hockeynews Mattias Ek answers the questions you are wondering about. Were you surprised when you heard about the big fight between Garpenlöv and Krüger? – No, I can’t say that I became that. You have to be careful with the choice of words for a word that can be read quite a lot into. But even according to what I hear around the team, there must be a rather tense atmosphere between Garpenlöv and some of the leading players. Understandable given how the start of the series has been and the many changes that have been made in the chains with players being moved around and also out of the power play. When things continue to be difficult, friction can naturally arise between the head coach and the players who represent the rest of the squad and have leading roles. Do you think it will turn around with the turnaround and the victory away to BIK Karlskoga? – Not at all convinced of that. I thought the big turning point came when 1–3 after two periods at home against Södertälje became 4–3 and three points on a singing and rocking Hovet. Because then Djurgården had two games in a row at Hovet without scoring a single goal, against Mora and Västerås, and against SSK the first powerplay goal of the season came through Daniel Brodin. And Linus Klasen, who has had difficulty with goal shooting, had to crack his zero. But in the match after, Djurgården instead lost a 4–2 lead away to Brynäs to a 7–4 loss. It was followed up with a race away to Kalmar. No, so to talk about a turnaround after a two-pointer away to fellow BIK Karlskoga is too early. Are there similarities and differences with last fall? – There are obvious similarities in that the game has not worked as desired. Last season, it was Joakim Fagervall who fought and toiled to get games and results in order so that they would go hand in hand. But it didn’t work out and that’s why he got the kick. Now it is Johan Garpenlöv who has had the same concerns with the game and it is reminiscent of last fall. But the big difference is that a year ago, Djurgården had goalkeeper Carl Lindbom, who won games for the team even when things looked bad. This year, Djurgården does not have the same safe goalkeeper play and that affects the entire defensive game. Yes, the whole game.
