Oskar Lang of Leksand has been reported to the disciplinary committee and risks suspension for a slewfoot on Anton Levtchi of Luleå during a Swedish Hockey League match. The incident occurred in the third period of Leksand's 3-1 victory over Luleå. Lang received a match penalty for the play, and both players were sent to the penalty box.
According to reports from the disciplinary committee, Lang reportedly used his right arm from behind around Levtchi's neck and his right leg from behind to trip Levtchi, who fell to the ice. The committee's decision on a suspension is expected later in the day. Following the penalty, Luleå scored a power-play goal to tie the game 1-1, but Leksand later scored two more goals to win 3-1.
Leksand is reportedly in a tight race to avoid relegation, with a key match against HV71 upcoming.
