Vålerenga is far away to look like the top team they were last year. And after Sunday’s blow to the Hamar Olympic Amphitheatre, Vålerenga is completely down to 8th place in the league game – 12 points behind leaders Stavanger Oilers, albeit with a game in hand.

Get-league teams struggled initially, but now it seems Stavanger Oilers to have regained control. It has not Vålerenga.
Tired: Espen Knutsen has not got the swing of Vålerenga in the series yet . Here he tries to incite players to Star.
– Vålerenga has worn more than the Oilers, for their part, I think it is temporary. With the squad and professionalism is only a matter of time before the machinery gets going. I’m not worried Stavanger because the relatively fast to get on track. They have too much quality at all levels to wear long, said sports director of the Norwegian Ice Hockey Federation, Petter Salsten, VG 23 September.
Since then, Stavanger Oilers won six straight games in the Get -ligaen, while Vålerenga won three and lost two.
– I have no immediate solution. We must return to the roots and let in fewer goals. We can not let many when we barely score, says Knutsen.
The Stavanger Oilers and now Storhamarsenteret has become too strong for Espen Knutsen iskrigere. The latter has turned Vålerenga in two of two settlements so far this season.
– Tonight won Storhamarsenteret fully deserved. They are better than us in a game where we struggled terribly to produce in game five against five. We have struggled all season. Will you not five-on-five, it is difficult to win hockey games, says Knutsen.
Reduction in vain
33-25 shot to Storhamarsenteret says something, but what happened on the ice in Hamar Olympic Amphitheatre was the home team ran over a meekly Vålerenga teams in the first two periods.
In front of 5.012 spectators sat Erik de la Rose in 1-0 after just over 15 minutes of the first period. In the middle period doubled Eirik Skadsdammen lead when he poked the puck into the net past Vålerenga keeper Steffen Søberg.
Morten Ask gave the visitors hope of points in the hideout halfway through the final period. When Vålerenga had woke up and pushed a more nervous Storhamarsenteret.
The reduction, however, helped little when Martin Gran counterattacked in 3-1 soon after.
TV 2s hockey expert, Bjorn Erevik think Vålerenga coming to turn back.
– You are quite of history if you think this is run, but if not Espen has a solution, it’s a wonder I have it. Towards Storhamarsenteret it seemed to me that there was less desire in the melee from Vålerenga players. It’s often the little things that give you the slight advantage, says Erevik VG.
