Eloranta living on borrowed time?

The demise of the once famous Björklöven from Umeå has over the last few seasons become more cemented. Reported economical problems and unrest among the supporters who clams the board is running the club into the ground. However, noting has hit the classic club harder than the results on the ice this season. With only 18 points from their first 20 games, the club finds themselves at the foot of the table, with only IK Oskarshamn lower, two points behind. Leksand legend Kari Eloranta is at the helm and must be checking that his CV is in order - Björklöven is today hosting Troja/Ljungby, currently placed just above their opponents (on goal difference only). If Eloranta's men fail to win this game, I expect the Finn to be finding himself unemployed by tomorrow. 

Good tasch tho...

This wouldn't really surprise me - Eloranta's career as a coach has been anything but successful; after taking over at Mora IK in February 2008, they dropped from Elitserien to Hockeyallsvenskan. He's now finding himself at the hot seat in Björklöven at the beginning of what must be one of their worst starts to a season ever. I'd like to say 'Onnea' for this afternoon. Regardless of the result in this game, I'd eat my laptop (with all the accessories) if he's still at 'löven at the end of the season. Let's make it a bet. Any takers?

UPDATE: Troja/Ljungby won 3-2 after penalties.
