Risto Dufva did not melt the pre -Pelicans winning events.
Jokers head coach Risto Dufva Boiled on Tuesday after the fourth SM League qualifying match. The experienced coach did not melt the pre -Pelicans’ pre -winning events.
Joker Ben Blood struggled a moment before the goal in the middle of the Pelicans Konsta Hirvonen with. Blood went bust and the audience whistled, but the situation did not cool down.
Only seconds later Hirvonen served the feed Miro Väänänen 4-3 winning paint.
– I know that the revenge of corporation comes as they always come. Mafia revenge, Dufva started at a press conference and continued:
– I say it anyway. It was quite arrogant to not whistle a clear Kamppi. I still looked at it from the tape. Refreshing and incomplete failure.
In Dufva’s opinion, getting into the follow -up was right in the match, but not whistling. Blood was on the ice surface and the Pelicans got overwhelming.
– The coaches go home and the judges go to bed. There is a difference between professions. Really stupid ending, really stupid. I think it’s wrong. Excuse.
– Good night for those who sleep at night.
The victory raised the Pelicans to a 3-1 lead in the series. The battle for the league will be interrupted on Thursday in Lahti.

The equalizer was answered Valtteri Filppula.
– We gave a two goals a little easily, but we were able to twist the game levels. In the final round, both teams had their moments. Going to the overtime was justified. Then such a solution.
Pelicans head coach Sami Kapanen He stated that matches in Helsinki have been more difficult for the team than home matches. The Jokers have not scored in Lahti yet, but in Helsinki, there has been twice in the follow -up.
– We can’t get into such a rhythm. The home team plays strongly, is energetic and moves well. The beginning of the items is challenging, but during the items we get to the right things. Now we were turned into a victory. It’s a big deal for us, Kapanen said.
The series will be interrupted on Thursday at 6:30 pm.
