5. HV71
In fifth place, the club from Jönköping have had a difficult month losing all their matches except that against struggling SDE Hockey. The team is not lacking experienced talent with Olympians, Riikka Välilä (FIN, 45 yrs), Jenni Asserholt (SWE, 30 yrs), Fanny Rask (SWE, 27 yrs) and Sabrina Zollinger (SWI, 25yrs) in the squad. But they also have some of the younger, new generation of SDHL players in Sanni Hakala (FIN, 21 yrs) and Ohio State University's Claudia Kepler (USA, 23 yrs). Finnish duo Hakala and Välilä leads the team in points with 24 whilst they have a Spanish goaltender, Alba Gonzalo who is doing a great job at the back with a 92.69 SVS%. However, despite all that stand out talent, the light in a dark November for the club may have been 23 year old Maja Jakobsson. A relative unknown, she has managed 2 goals and 4 assists in November and will be a welcome addition to the team already ahead of Asserholt and Zollinger in Total Points.
