Against Oilers, Erä saw a comfortable 4-1 lead melt away. Five minutes into the third period, the home team scored twice within six seconds to make it 6-5.
Bad.
But that’s when big players stand up.
With five minutes left, Erä got a penalty shot and Jani Helenius walked out to take it. And put in on the top corner behind Niko Nordström.
Fourty seconds into overtime, Pasi Laitila brought the ball over the line and passed to center to Jani Helenius. Yep, top corner again, and two important points.
Erä now leads the league by two points and has a superior goal difference. Classic Tampere is still a threat for the regular season but they have to take at least three points of four possible in their remaining two games. Counting that Erä would not beat SSV next Friday.
SSV, next Friday.
