Both Växjö and JYP remain among the hottest teams in their respective league right now. The Lakers continue to top the SHL, while the Finns are fourth but with games in hand.

Växjö Lakers' six-game winning streak came to an end this weekend after a 5-4 home shootout loss to Djurgården. The Lakers however remain a whopping 14 points clear at the top of the SHL, and have played two games less than Färjestad below them.

Växjö will play Mora at home, and then visit HV71 and Brynäs before returning home for the CHL Final.

JYP are one of the form teams in the Liiga at the moment, with the second-best record over the last five games - and the best if you look over the past 15. They've won both of their last two matches, including a thumping 7-1 road victory in Turku on Friday night. 

The side from Jyväskylä have a slightly more complicated schedule ahead of the CHL Final, playing this week on Tuesday (Vassa, home) and Wednesday (Tappara, away); and then again on Friday (IFK Helsinki, away) & a derby game on Saturday (KalPa, home).
