The junior crowns have impressed during the JVM. One of those who has perhaps performed the best so far is Hugo Hävelid. He was not in goal when Sweden lost on penalties against Finland on New Year’s Eve afternoon, but against Switzerland, Hävelid was back between the posts.
Then, in the quarter-finals, his tournament clean sheet was broken when Switzerland reduced it to 2-1.
Then the kept clean sheet stopped at 157 minutes. Shortly before, SVT trumpeted that Hävelid had set a new record in JVM.
– Hugo Hävelid has not only been really good in this tournament, he has actually been historically good. Now he has broken the record for kept zero in the JVM context.
The expert Jonas Andersson hung up on the broadcast.
– The old record from 2015, it was 135 minutes, now we have played more than 10 minutes of this third match then that Hävelid holds, that is, he is over 150 minutes. Mikhail Berdin from Russia held the old record, Hävelid breaks it.
Umicevic: “We made a mistake, what can I say”
But it was not a new JVM record, as both SVT proclaimed. Mikhail Berdin, who claimed to own the record, has never played in the JVM. The current record stands at 158 minutes, which American goalkeeper Spencer Knight managed to achieve in the 2021 JVM.
When Expressen caught up with SVT profiler Dusan Umicevic after the end of the match, which ended 3-2 to Sweden after extra time, he talks about why the alleged record was announced live.
– We made a mistake, what can I say? We looked at Hockeynews’ information, he says and at the same time confirms that they did not come out with a correction.
– But we removed it from our site. We did not make a correction in the broadcast, but it is incorrect information.
