In the playoffs, coaches usually trust their number 1 goalies. For the Tigers it is Henrik Haukeland, for the guests it is Jonas Stettmer.

In addition, the capital city team gained significant advantages in the special teams, had a 27 percent efficiency in the power play and scored three goals in the majority. In contrast, the Tigers are the worst team in the DEL in this regard – with one goal from 16 power-play situations. This inevitably results in the corresponding penalty killing values - with the Berliners as number two in these playoffs.
