Färjestad suddenly changed goalkeeper to Timrå.
Maxime Lagacé was replaced by Damian Clara.
– He received a blow or feeling which meant that he could not continue playing, says Tomas Mitell Värmlands-Folkblad.
In the away match against Timrå, Färjestad goalkeeper Maxime Lagacé was having a nightmare start.
The Canadian went out behind his own goal to stop a dump, but fell limply to the ice and can thank higher powers that the home team did not take advantage of the opportunity. In addition, he appeared to be in pain after the incident.
Timrå only managed three shots in the first period and one of these went in.
When the middle act then rolled into motion, Lagacé was not seen. He had been replaced in favor of Damian Clara.

Appeared again
The reason for the change is unclear, but Lagacé was not seen on the bench either.
But when the third period began, he was back on the bench again.
– Max Lagacé is sitting there again. It is possible that he received some medical treatment. Difficult to find what could have caused him to leave after 20 minutes, says TV4’s commentator Johan Edlund.
Afterwards, coach Tomas Mitell confirmed that it was an injury.
– He received a blow or feeling which meant that he could not continue playing, he says Värmlands-Folkblad.
The match offered many goals and Färjestad finally drew the longest straw.
Joakim Nygård became a hero when he shot 3-2 in the power play in the third period. In the final period, the Varmlanders were also able to run away and win quite comfortably with 5-2, despite the big star David Tomasek leaving for the third period.
Later in the match, it was time for the next FBK player to leave the ice. Then it was David Tomásek who had to stop the match early.
– It’s the same there, he got a feeling and stepped off. We get to evaluate the situation with both of them, but it’s not about any broken bones or anything. Both go on the bus home.
