Boro/Vetlanda HC handled Nyköpings SK 4-1 in regulation, scoring in all three periods and never trailing. The game was settled in the middle frame, where the hosts went 2-1 and pushed the margin to two.
A single goal in the first put Boro/Vetlanda up 1-0, and the second period produced the only reply Nyköping would get — the hosts led 3-1 after 40 minutes. The visitors needed a quick start to the third; instead Boro/Vetlanda added one more for the 4-1 final.
The number that defines it: four goals spread across three periods, with Nyköping restricted to one for the night. Scoring details from this one weren't fully available, but the period-by-period ledger leaves little doubt about who controlled the game.
