The Grand Final:
Personal Rainerit vs Fladie Faxes
The final has the matchup everyone anticipated but with two teams that took very different roads to get here.
Personal Rainerit enter as the unstoppable force of these playoffs. They swept Tibro HC 3–0 in the quarterfinals and then dismantled Clowns On Ice 3–0 in the semifinals with clinical, relentless offense, scoring 18 goals while conceding just 3. Their top line has been lethal all tournament, led by @ttskede, who has scored 38 goals and 34 assists for 72 points in 12 games while shooting at over 41%—a staggering conversion rate for this level.
He’s flanked by @Elop-_-, not far behind with 31 goals and 24 assists (55 points), shooting at 36%. The supporting cast isn’t just decoration either: @hugobrann72 has added 43 points, while @Veljenpoika69 and @Maltseviii have chipped in 35 and 33 points respectively. Across the board they’ve dominated possession, faceoffs, and hits, showing physicality to go along with finesse.
Even their goaltending depth is a luxury: @The-Tankki235 is a perfect 6–0 in the playoffs with an 80% save percentage and 2.67 goals-against average, while @JonttuM12 has the same record with a 77.14% save percentage. They can rotate goalies without missing a beat.
Fladie Faxes, on the other hand, have shown consistency, discipline, and the ability to adapt against strong opponents. They defeated Sunburst Howlers 3–1 in a competitive quarterfinal series, and followed it up with an impressive 3–0 sweep over HC Wild Hogs in the semifinals.
Their attack relies on balance and grit rather than pure star power. @Lypsaaja6365 leads with 48 points in 13 games (19 goals, 29 assists), shooting at 30.6% and delivering 54 hits while winning nearly 58% of faceoffs—exactly the kind of two-way production their system demands. @Dan9105 is right behind with 36 points (16 goals, 20 assists), and handles the dirty work too, adding 44.4% faceoff success.
Players like @SoldatUgglan, @Rizlan, and @Hescores round out the scoring with 30, 21, and 20 points respectively, each with 30+ hits and defensive awareness baked into their game. This depth makes Faxes hard to wear down—they don’t rely on one line, they roll all of them and trust everyone to play their structure.
Perhaps the biggest equalizer is in net, where @E1vira123 has delivered a sensational 12–1 record, saving 86.92% of shots faced with a microscopic 1.08 goals-against average and 4 shutouts. His ability to keep them alive when pinned in and to erase mistakes is exactly why they’re here.
Prediction:
Personal Rainerit have steamrolled everyone so far. Their offense is overwhelming, their transition game is polished, and they have firepower from every line. But Fladie Faxes won’t be intimidated. They’re used to absorbing pressure, clogging lanes, finishing their hits, and leaning on an elite goalie to hold the line.
If the game opens up, Rainerit will feast. But if Faxes can slow it down and frustrate them, this could be much tighter than expected. Still, the firepower and depth Rainerit possess should be too much over a series.
👉 Prediction: Personal Rainerit wins 3–1.
