Anton Blidh.

Anton Blidh blev matchvinnare för Hartford Wolfpack när Providence Bruins besegrades med 4–3 i den första divisionssemifinalen. Ett Providence som han gjort sex säsonger i.

Anton Blidh är inne på sin nionde säsong i Nordamerika. Den 29-årige före detta Frölundaforwarden har spelat närmare 400 matcher i AHL, vilket tidigare under säsongen gjorde honom till den meste svensken i farmarligans historia.

Merparten av matcherna har kommit för Boston Bruins farmarlag Providence, som han spelade för till och från under sina sex första säsonger i Nordamerika. Sedan en trejd från Colorado Avalanche till New York Rangers förra säsongen har han spelat för Hartford Wolf Pack.

I natt stötte Blidh på sitt gamla lag från Providence när Wolf Pack mötte dem i divisionssemifinalen. Passande nog klev svensken fram och blev matchvinnare.

När det blev seger med 4–3 var det han som sköt 4–2-målet tidigt i den tredje perioden. Hans första fullträff i årets Calder Cup-slutspel.

För Hartford hade den tidigare Frölundabacken Victor Mancini en assist.

I Providence stod Oskar Steen för en assist.

Ny stormatch av Erik Portillo

Ontario Reign, Los Angeles Kings farmarlag, kopplade greppet om sin serie mot Abbotsford Canucks, Vancouvers AHL-lag. Det blev seger med 3–1 i första divisionssemifinalen efter att svenske målvakten Erik Portillo stått för en ny stark insats.

Han stoppade 23 av 24 skott och utsågs till matchens tredje stjärna.

Portillo har gått segrande ur Reigns tre första matcher i slutspelet. Han har bara släppt in tre mål och har en räddningsprocent på 96,3. Med det finns han med i toppen av slutspelets målvaktsliga.

Samuel Fagemo stod för en assist för Ontario, som slog ut Bakersfield Condors i play-in innan serien mot Abbotsford.
