The ultimate game of the 2025/26 Champions Hockey League season is fast-approching so let's dive deep into the rosters of our Finalists, Frölunda Gothenburg and Luleå Hockey, and compare their LGT Top Scorers and a few players that could make a big difference on the ice come the big game - scroll down to find out who we picked!

Read up on our Team Stats Head-To-Head HERE!

Starting with the LGT Top Scorers - we've got two players who have been lethal all season long, both figuring at the very sharp end of the 2025/26 Top Scorer Leaderboard heading into the final game of the season.

Max Friberg

Frölunda's club captain Max Friberg is in his sixth season in Europe's elite club ice hockey competition, and has excelled this season with 3 goals and a league-high 9 assists in 12 games played, displaying his one-of-a-kind set-up play and nose for a pass in front of the net.

Add in his two CHL titles and years of experience with one of the competition's most feared teams, you have a complete, confident captain that's leading by example and ready to take on a familiar opponent in Luleå on home ice.

The 33-year-old was also nominated for the prestigious 2025/26 LGT MVP Award some weeks ago (don't forget - the winner will be announced at the CHL Final!).

Mathias Bromé

Luleå's Mathias Bromé has really hit the ground running in his debut CHL season. The 31-year-old is in his second season with the Swedish club and his signature fast-skating and skilled puck-handling game has been on full display, though rather than scoring, the 2025 SHL champion has been the perfect teammate in front of the net with 8 assists across the 2025/26 campaign of Europe's biggest club ice hockey competition.

He's scored twice himself, which doesn't sound lik a lot in 11 games played, but both were game-winners. 11 blocked shots and hits, backed up by a high average of 17+ minutes of TOI cement this forward's important two-way play.

Who else to look out for?

Have a scroll through the gallery to see a few star players who we think will play a BIG role in the CHL Final!

Brendan Shinnimin, Luleå Hockey

Brendan Shinnimin has missed a few games this season but with 3G and 3A in 6 games played, backed up by high chance-creation, the 35-year-old has shown he's a reliable source of offensive power when called upon. (Photo: Fredrik Sundvall)

Ivar Sternberg, Frölunda Gothenburg

A top prospect of the upcoming NHL Entry Draft, Ivar Sternberg has lined up for 11 games this CHL season, surprising many with bursts of energy and surprising moves - watch out for this young gun! (Photo: Johannes TRAUB)

Frédéric Allard, Luleå Hockey

Frédéric Allard has been one of the hardest working players for Luleå this CHL season and with 7 assists across 11 games played, he's had a big impact on the play up front despite primarly lining up on the blue line! (Photo: Fredrik Sundvall)

Henrik Tömmernes, Frölunda Gothenburg

Henrik Tömmernes is also up for the 2025/26 LGT MVP Award and with 4G and 4A this season, the 186 cm D-man is a force to be reckoned with on the ice and one that can stop an opponent on the spot. (Photo: Michael Erichsen)

Isac Hedqvist, Luleå Hockey

Isac Hedqvist has been steadily reeling in points all season and heading into the most important game of the calendar, the energetic 20-year-old sits on 3G and 6A. He'll be sure to add more! (Photo: Fredrik Sundvall)

Jere Innala, Frölunda Gothenburg

Another big assister, Jere Innala has 1G and 8A heading into the CHL Final. He leads his club in shots on goal taken and often jumps on for the PP, so keep an eye on his passing or potential rebounds. (Photo: Lukasz Sobala)
