SaiPa ruined the Savonians Friday’s party and won the fifth final with 4-2. The stunning finals will continue on Saturday.
In Kuopio, everything was covered by the first championship in KalPa’s history. Somewhere in Niirala’s Montu’s cache, champagne bottles were in the cold and the just edition of the championship caps ready to be shared.
SaiPa decided differently and won 4-2.

The most upcoming situation in the match was seen in the middle of the second round when KalPa’s Czech Republic Lukas Kanak Samuli Niinisaari SaiPa pulled with gross knee tank.
For some incomprehensible reason for a two -two Kristian Vikman and Joonas hard Hold the whistle in my pocket.
– Well, apparently, within the rules, it was the tackle. If those are just right finethen they are. The judges will certainly take care of it, Niinisaari gently set his words.
Have you been put on a bridle with regard to commenting?
– It has not been said that you should not comment on situations. It doesn’t help when you hope the judges do their job. I’m fine.

SaiPa’s head coach Raimo Helminen also pulled a scarce comment line for tackling.
– I can’t say. There are colorful games.
Such tackles are nasty and, in the worst case, end the entire gaming career. Niinisaari was lucky on the way.
Jyri Rönn, the referee leader, has enough work.

Sputnikit was the more powerful team on Friday night.
– This was a tough game, just like everyone else has been. Today we were able to be more efficient in the scoring. Now we are still a knife in the throat.
– It was a bit differently controlled by KalPa’s initial turmoil than last time we were here. There were bangs and succeeded. We were able to defend quite closely, it is important to us, the 26-year-old Niinisaari, who got one input point in his account.
District question mark

The finals will continue on Saturday at 6:30 pm at Lappeenranta Kisapuisto Park. KalPa is a Finnish champion.
– You have to keep KalPa’s dangerous guys out of the goal. We still need to defend and try to get long attacks there. And through that, the opponent is tired, Niinisaari thought.
SaiPa supporters were worried that Kari Piiroinen came off the goal in 55.46. Michael Hutchinson, a Canadian, played minutes.
– I don’t know what happened to Piiroinen, Helminen tried to say to the media.
You changed her, why?
– I don’t think, Raipe continued.
Naturally, Niirala’s Monttu was sold out, with 5,300 spectators present.
