David Tomasek scored a hat trick as Färjestad staged a historic comeback from 0-5 to 6-5. One of his goals was a stylish penalty, with a late decision proving decisive. Tomasek missed a penalty in the first quarterfinal against Rögle but took revenge in the second game by helping turn around a huge deficit.
The fine penalty was just one of three goals by the Czech player. Tomasek said he changed his mind as he got close to the goal and tried to do something different. SVT Sport expert Jonas Andersson praised the penalty as extremely stylish.
