Before the quarterfinals finished in the SHL, I got the chance to speak with Isac Lundeström on behalf of Anaheim Calling. Having just come off an emotional victory against last year’s champions Växjö Lakers, it was an elated but tired Lundeström that took some time after the game for the interview.
“It feels good to be here, this is what I went home for - the playoffs!”, says Lundeström directly. “It feels better and better for every game and having just beat Växjö it feels like we can beat any team. However it also feels like every team can win these playoffs, there is no clear favourite this year.
