so, after today's games of the final stage of the CHL preliminary round, we already know almost all the teams qualified to the knockout stage (15 out of 16, to be precise)...

 

and if this is obvious for the 4 completed groups, it could/should be different for the 4 groups going to end their campaign tomorrow...but this is not the case, as most verdicts have come earlier than expected...

 

all 8 groups winners have been determined: 3 come from Switzerland (Biel/Bienne, Zug and Lausanne), 3 from Sweden (Luleå, Skellefteå and Frölunda) and 2 from Germany (Mannheim and RB Munich)...

 

this means, of course, that the big losers are the Czech Extraliga and the Finnish Liiga, which didn't see any of their teams topping a single group...

 

moreover, Finland only have 1 single team team going through to the knockout stage, meanwhile Czech Republic at least have 2 safe teams in the top 16 (Pilsen and Mountfield) and 1 still on course (Liberec, that need to win in regulation tomorrow against Augsburg to advance)...

 

Sweden are the big winners, with all of their 5 teams qualified to the knockout stage, followed by Switzerland, with 4 teams going through to the top 16 and only 1 team ("my" Ambrì-Piotta :cry:) leaving the competition already after the preliminary stage...

 

also Germany could make a clean sweep, if tomorrow Augsburg can earn at least 1 point on Liberec's ice (right now, they have 2 group winners out of 2 teams that already completed their campaign in the first round)...

 

finally, the only verdict still open is, as written before, the 2nd place in group C, where tomorrow Liberec (CZE) need to win in regulation to overtake Augsburg (GER)...

should instead the Germans earn at least 1 point, they will get the qualifying spot at the expense of the Czechs...

 

p.s. all this, assuming that Frölunda can take home the expected easy win in Cardiff (where the game is not over yet, but the Swedes lead 8-2 after 48 minutes of play...so, I guess it won't be difficult for them to complete the task)...;)

 

final EDIT: obviously, it all went according to plan...so, all the info posted above are officially confirmed...:evil::pope::)

Playoff Draw: Friday, October 18th @ Noon CET

 

The 2019/20 Champions Hockey League Playoff Draw will take place on Friday, October 18th in Helsinki, and it will be conducted by a special guest.

 

Read below to find out all relevant information for the draw and the Round of 16.

 

The Champions Hockey League is proud to announce that former Finnish football player and coach Sami Hyypiä will conduct the Playoff Draw on October 18th in Helsinki.

Sami won the UEFA Champions League back in 2005 with Liverpool FC, where he spent 10 years of his storied career.

The Finn, who has also played and coached in Germany and Switzerland, is an avid hockey fan.

 

The CHL Playoff Draw will take place two days after the Group Stage has been completed.

 

The live show will be recorded at the CMore studios in Helsinki and streamed live on the CHL’s digital platforms (Website & Facebook).

 

The Playoff Draw starts at 12:00 CEST (13:00 local time).

 

Draw Rules & Regulations

 

- 16 teams enter the Playoff Draw - the 8 group winners and 8 runners-up.

- The group winners are all placed in Pot A and the runners up in Pot B.

- Teams from Pot A will be randomly drawn against teams from Pot B.

 

The draw will not only produce the Round of 16 pairings, but also determine each team’s position in the playoff tree, showing their potential path all the way to the Final.

 

Starting in the Playoffs, national clashes are now possible.

 

However, teams that played each other during the Group Stage cannot play each other in the first playoff round.

 

As match-ups in all subsequent rounds will be determined by bracket position, they will be able to meet again later in the competition.

 

Once the Playoff Draw for the Round of 16 has been made, no additional draws for the following rounds will be held.

 

Playoff Format & Schedule

 

The CHL Playoffs start on 12/13 November with the first three playoff rounds being a two-game, home-and-away, aggregate scoring series.

 

The season culminates on 4 February 2020 with the ultimate one-game Final.

 

In general group runners-up will play their home game first in the Round of 16, unless an arena is unavailable and the home games must be switched.

 

For the following playoff rounds the CHL will determine the schedule based solely on factors such as arena availability and broadcasting obligations.

The schedule will be confirmed next week.
