Wraps GET https://www.shl.se/api/gameday/game-overview/{game_uuid} of the SHL site API
(www.shl.se). Unofficial use of a public source; seasons are END years (2026 = 2025/26) and are
mapped to the site's ssgt uuids through /statistics-v2/layout-info.
Value
A fastRhockey_data tibble (the raw JSON list when return_parsed = FALSE) with the following columns:

| game_uuid | character | Platform game uuid (bdhvuc5tex); every gameday route takes it. |
| home_team_game_source_id | character | StatNet game key, date-HOME-AWAY (e.g. 20250913-FHC-LHC); the same game as gameId. |
| home_team_game_id | integer | StatNet game number (StatNet key space, e.g. 22003); keys stats-info games and equals sports-v2 game-info extId. Not the game uuid. |
| home_team_place | character | Side of the game: home or away. |
| home_team_score | integer | Goals scored by the team in the game. |
| home_team_team_id | character | Team code (e.g. FHC) in gameday and standings payloads; not the team uuid. |
| home_team_team_name | character | Team display name (e.g. Frölunda HC). |
| home_team_team_code | character | Team code (FHC, LHC, ...). |
| home_team_game_uuid | character | Game uuid (platform key space, e.g. bdhvuc5tex); joins to schedule gameInfo[].uuid and every gameday/{game_uuid} route. The StatNet number of the same game is gameId. |
| away_team_game_source_id | character | StatNet game key, date-HOME-AWAY (e.g. 20250913-FHC-LHC); the same game as gameId. |
| away_team_game_id | integer | StatNet game number (StatNet key space, e.g. 22003); keys stats-info games and equals sports-v2 game-info extId. Not the game uuid. |
| away_team_place | character | Side of the game: home or away. |
| away_team_score | integer | Goals scored by the team in the game. |
| away_team_team_id | character | Team code (e.g. FHC) in gameday and standings payloads; not the team uuid. |
| away_team_team_name | character | Team display name (e.g. Frölunda HC). |
| away_team_team_code | character | Team code (FHC, LHC, ...). |
| away_team_game_uuid | character | Game uuid (platform key space, e.g. bdhvuc5tex); joins to schedule gameInfo[].uuid and every gameday/{game_uuid} route. The StatNet number of the same game is gameId. |
| home_goals | integer | Home goals after this event (running score). |
| away_goals | integer | Away goals after this event (running score). |
| state | character | StatNet game state (GameEnded seen). |
| time_period | integer | Period (1-3, 4 = overtime, 5 = shootout). |
| time_period_time | character | Time in period (MM:SS). Clock/duration as an mm:ss string. |
