It has been evident that Heineman has struggled to score goals in the SHL. The production hasn’t been what he nor anyone else had expected. In last weekend’s game against Malmö, Heineman had a goal and an assist.
The goal was an excellent adaptive play. While Leksand was on the counter-attack, they performed a partial line chance and Heineman joined the second wave right from the bench. Yelling as well as banging his stick on the ice, he caught the attention of his teammate and put the puck in the net with a well-placed shot.
Emil Heineman jumps in on the play, knocks the ice a few times, gets the pass and scores with a beauty of a shot down low.
