The captain got some kind of 'incapatity' and didnt do the work 100%, but another off duty MD81 captain rushed forward and helped the crew with the emergency prodedures.

Wait a minute, that's some accusation! You might be confused with SAS' improper training.
Contributory causes were: The pilots were not trained to identify and eliminate engine surging; ATR-which was unknown within SAS - was activated and increased the engine power without the pilot's knowledge.
