What is Kalmarsund doing right? What is Jönköping doing wrong?

When looking at the men's SSL standings after nine rounds, two of the more interesting teams to me are Kalmarsund and Jönköping. Now, mind you, the standings are very tight, and we have not played ten games yet. But still. Overreacting can be both interesting and fun. 😄

Kalmarsund 3rd, and Jönköping 11th.

Kalmarsund has a really good roster, and they got some new under the radar strong players this off-season. But third place is still a very good accomplishment! And they are not conceding many goals - tied for second best in terms of keeping the ball out of their own net.

Jönköping has really good top four defenders (Nyström x2, Nilsen and Cermak), and also several talented players up front. Still they are pretty far away from a playoff spot, and are struggling to score goals.

Let us use the recent SSL matchup between Kalmarsund and Jönköping as a litmus test for where both teams are at.
