Also for Ilves' third goal scorer Ville Meskane judging by the ventilation, the paint seemed to taste good. He returned from illness to the lineup in mid-November, but only now scored the first goal since his return.

The golden helmet of the lynx Oula Palve was kicked out in the second set from a tackle aimed at the head. Palve tackled Sport who skated in a slightly low position in the middle area Axel Holmströmwho nevertheless got up on his own, but never returned to the rink.

Sport, which was ahead in terms of gameplay, went up by Johan Sundström and Teemu Suhonen with hits on the end of the goal, but did not reach the crossbar. After a break of three matches, Ilvesen, who was in charge of defense Jakub Malek stopped 39 shots.
