We've arrived at the final stop of the ECL 12 Core season, that being the Finals between two great teams - Resurrection and Stone Age. Both have a nice mix of players that have managed to gel together over the course of the long season. The finals are where their true potential is going to be measured.
Here's the full ECL 12 Core playoff schedule:

Stone Age vs Resurrection 
(16)
Stone Age have been on a mission throughout the season - a mission to prove everyone that they in fact still got it. Under command of experienced winger @Maexsa, several players seem to have found a second wind to their careers and are now performing way above their previous levels, especially as team players and important parts of a winning squad. Their playoff run hasn't been without trouble, however, and the team has struggled with converting on chances from time to time. As a result, several of their games have been rather low-scoring and the team has been denied a goal entirely in three of their last seven games. If Stone Age is to win it all, they need to find one more gear and presumed starting goaltender @Dick Weener(ewokvillage) needs to be at his very best.
On the other side, we've got challenger Resurrection, who are on a very similar mission. Despite having a very different roster to their competition, the squad has managed to maximize their performance and find new highs as the season has progressed further. Honestly, there might still be much more we haven't seen from this teams as especially youngsters @Xkeineri and @tkantola are very exciting to watch and should be players to keep an eye on in the future. Resurrection have had some ability to rotate players in the postseason and it'll be interesting to se what kind of lineup they'll ice for the finals, as they have found success with every formation they've used so far. Mainly, the choice might be between @Teemu97 or @jBoulder-mClump on the center lane.
Both teams certainly possess the skill needed to win it all, and the seven game series about to start will surely be an all-out war.
Prediction: 3-4 Resurrection
