Overview

  • The decisive Game 7 between Dresdner Eislöwen and Ravensburg Towerstars will determine the DEL2 champion and the promotion or relegation fate of Düsseldorfer EG.
  • A Dresden victory secures them the DEL2 title and promotion to the DEL, relegating DEG to the second tier despite Ravensburg's championship hopes.
  • Ravensburg, unable to apply for a DEL license due to arena and financial criteria, can only claim the DEL2 title, which would preserve DEG's spot in the DEL.
  • Dresden led the series 3–1 but lost the last two games, including a 4:2 defeat at home, forcing the high-stakes showdown on April 29 in Ravensburg.
  • Düsseldorf fans anxiously await the outcome, as their club's future in the DEL hinges on the result of a game they are not playing in.
