 The Lakers surprised most people when they "stole" Skellefteå's home game and won with two goals to one.The second game of the finals was by most media described as a "do or die game" for Skellefteå, arguing that a 2-0 lead for Växjö would be too difficult for Skellefteå to turn into a victory.Skellefteå AIK themselves however did not agree at all, but did emphasize the needs of improvement in the play around the nets.
