While Ritten had a four-days break, Asiago hit the ice only 48 hours after their big semifinal fight against Jesenice again. However, the yellow-red were in good shape and at eye level for long periods. Ritten was more efficient and took the series lead with a 4:1 home win, though. Oscar Ahlström not only gained two points, he also scored the game winning goal on powerplay. Ritten won the last four games and the Swede earned four goals and three assists in these matches. Now the "Buam" travel to Asiago on Monday. The Italian champion has won all three road games in playoffs with suffering only three away defeats the whole season. This means that Asiago is under pressure as they lost all six season meetings with Ritten, too. In their last four matches Ritten always scored four goals. This amout Asiago has to vermeiden: Every time Asiago conceded more than three goals at home this season, they lost the game. In their championship season 2014-15 Asiago tied the series after a lost opener and got the title in the 7th game.
