Quarter Finals, serie is tied 1:1 (5:3, 2:8 )

Definately the most interesting QF pair. Furuset is total outsider here, and they already in first match proved to be hard bone to crack. Making one of the biggest surprises in Play-off, beating Frisk 5:3, after they were 1:3 down. Scoring four unanswered goals in last period. Serie is also very interesting, not only because of results, but because of huge number of PPs. In first match there were 72 penalty minutes, in second 171 penalty minutes!! Plenty of chances for PP and plenty PP goals. 10 of 11 goals in 2nd match came from PP. Idle chance for playing on over, but margins are now high, and with low odds....

I can't really be sure what happened in last period of first match, what caused Frisk blackout, but i can guess probably. Looking only in match protocol (you can't see Norwegian hockey on TV nowhere except Scandinavia) i can see Frisk played most of the last period with player deficit, which probably resulted in four conceded goals. But reason could also be tiredness after celebrating regular season title that they've won three days ago. Anyway, it's not really important as todays it's totally different and new match.

High scoring games are usually good for two kinds of bets (except overs off course) - bet on favorite to win with handicap or on surprise. I choose the first solution here, not only because Furuset already caused a surprise in first match, but also because i don't think Frisk can fail to win today. Their moral and atmosphere in team should also be high after last 8:2 win. Their meetings this season:

2008-02-26 Frisk Asker 8-2 Furuset

2008-02-24 Furuset 5-3 Frisk Asker

2008-01-13 Furuset 3-5 Frisk Asker

2007-12-06 Frisk Asker 4-2 Furuset

2007-10-25 Furuset 3-1 Frisk Asker

2007-09-16 Frisk Asker 7-3 Furuset

As you can see, all wins with two or more, from both side. I think Frisk will win today, win high...
