In an exciting match against Frölunda, Örebro Hockey demonstrated team spirit and the importance of home crowd support. The victory was described as the stands' win, with fans suddenly coming alive and inspiring the players to step up. Despite significant injuries to Juuso Vainio, Sampo Ranta, and Teemu Turunen—which would be tough losses for any team—Örebro managed to turn the game around.
An unusual lineup choice proved decisive: Christopher Mastomäki played center in the powerplay, handling the role excellently.

Noah Steen was at the center of events when he disrupted a Frölunda player, drawing a penalty that Örebro capitalized on to decide the game. Steen commented: 'He plays offensively in his own zone.
