2007-04-02 Skin of Teeth Syndrome

If teeth had skin it could not be tighter than the end of the 2007 Kvalserien. Even with one minute to go things were unclear as to what was going to happen. When that minute expired it was heartbreak for Malmö. A monumental last ten minutes which almost rescued the impossible was just not long enough. The despair and disappointment on both the players and fans faces was there for all to see. For the leadership within the organization that despondency must soon turn to a focus on putting a plan together to get the Redhawks back into the Elitserien in time for the big move to their new home.

2006-11-12 A NEW KING IN MALMÖ

At the start of the Elitserien 2006-2007 campaign hopes were high of a successful season at Malmö Redhawks. Nineteen games in and most of those hopes have been deflated. Rock bottom in the league, things had to change. Despite some players leaving the club fortunes did not improve and this weekend Malmö Redhawks made, what was, a very difficult decision. Head coach Lars Osten Bergström was to be replaced. Club director Thomas Stenberg says "We were happy with Ostens efforts last year but have not had the development we had hoped for this season. Therefore we have made the decision to bring new blood in to help bring about the necessary changes."

2006-04-13 ELITE TIMES AHEAD

For those who arrived at Malmö Isstadion on Wednesday last the tension was already palpable. For those who arrived just before the puck dropped it was almost unbearable. The win against Skellefteå the previous week alongside Södertälje dropping points made the things fairly easy to predict. Malmö needed to beat Leksand to open the door to elite hockey in the autumn.

2006-04-05 One Step Closer

Malmö have had it difficult against Skellefteå all season having been beaten on all three previous meetings of the two teams. Finally on Monday night the Redhawks claimed a well deserved victory, but what better time to claim just rewards. While Malmö were beating AIK by two goals to one Södertalje were dropping points at Leksand. With a little maths works after the game the Malmö fans all came to the same conclusion, a win against Leksand at home on Wednesday means Elitserien ice hockey in Malmö next season.

2006-04-03 And then there were three!

Six teams started this Kvalserien, now only three are left with any chance of making the step up to the Elitserien. Malmö, Skellefteå and Södertälje are the only teams with any realistic chance of getting that much desired promotion. Rögle still have a mathematical chance of making it but you would need a calculator with space for a lot of numbers to try and work out their odds of challenging for one of the top two spots. Put another way, if Malmö want to play Elitserien hockey next year, they have a lot of work to do over the next seven days. The good news for Malmö is that they are in full control of their own destiny. Win all of the last three games and they will be promoted. Simple, isn't it?
