Is nothing more fun than playing Game 7 "- Aftonbladet

class=”abCity”> DETROIT. There will be a seventh, decisive thriller also between the Blackhawks and Red Wings.

Despite the disadvantage facing third period won Chicago the sixth game in Detroit last night – and thus smoothed the bright hard series.

– Wonderful. We had good time decided at an earlier stage, but there is nothing more fun than playing Game 7, says Niklas Hjalmarsson to Sportbladet after 4-3 victory.

They were down for the count after three straight losses against old rival Detroit – and likewise for the third period of tonight’s game at Joe Louis Arena.

President’s Trophy winners the Chicago Blackhawks can never be discounted.

“Strange match”

They stood for a brilliant final act, turning 2-1-inferior to 4-2-edge (then Wings could certainly reduce the very end, but by then it was too late) – and has now been smoothed series.

– Yes, this was a little weird match. We were good at first, but then it felt like we slowed. Second period was entirely theirs. But in the third we really did what we could and made sure to take advantage of their mistakes properly, says Niklas Hjalmarsson as we see him in a joyous locker room afterward.

“Do not know where their back gone”

He himself was extremely successful in that particular art to exploit the home side’s mistakes; fit into a standalone Michal Handzus at the equalizer early in the third preferred literally pants of unfortunate Wings hill Brendan Smith.

– Yes, sometimes even my passing out … I pulled away a backhand and I do not really know where their back had gone, Handzus was quite clean, he says.

No, there were many who were wondering …

There is therefore a decisive Game 7 drama at the United Center the night of Thursday – and “Hammer” cheering.

– Yes, it’s wonderful. We had good time decided at an earlier stage, but personally I do not think there’s anything more fun than playing Game 7, he explains.

– We’ll just make sure not to relax now. It is easy when you come back this way, but it is absolutely not. The match will be the hardest of all to win.

Disappointed Zetterberg

Detroit camp is one, understandably, less amused at having to return to the difficult United Center after sumpat two match points.

– Yes, of course you feel a little disappointed right now, any time we had of course brought it here. But we made some simple mistakes that cost us the game and now it’s just reload and try again, says Henrik Zetterberg to Sportbladet.

– We are still positive, we played a Game 7 away from home against Anaheim recently won. We know we can do it again.

Joakim Andersson scored for otherwise one of Detroit’s goals tonight – on a shot Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford definitely should have taken.
