Erste Bank Eishockey Liga. This season, Game 311 is Game Six in the Final Series, proving how close the league is. The maximum possible number of games is 319 and EHC LIWEST Black Wings Linz could still force number 312 with a home win. None of the games in the Final Series went to overtime, and neither were any of the six round robin games. It were all close games throughout, though, and on Tuesday, it’s high time for the Black Wings to turn the Series around. Brad Purdie, who’s two goals short of Warren Norris’ league-leading 35 goals thinks that “we’re playing some of our best hockey, but we need to wake up, smell the coffee and score form our chances. We were down in the Semis, which we means we’ve got the ability to turn this one around, too.”
His Headcoach, Kim Collins, asks for no less than 110 per cent n Tuesday night: „We’ve got the chance to win the league title. It is every players dream to win this championship and we can do it. We need to keep cool when we get fastbreaks and score from these situations. We will not surrender.“ Aside from Purdie, who has 33 goals, Pat Leahy is Linz most valuable asset going into Game Six. He is the league’s topscorer with 80 points (30 goals, 50 assists)  
The Red Bulls feel they might be on the way to a perfect season, fulfilling all the targets set by their Headcoach Pierre Pagè. They won the IIHF Continental Cup and the Red Bulls Salute and now want to finish the Play-Offs with a road win. Manuel Latusa has his eyes set on finishing the Series on Tuesday: “The fourth win is always the most difficult one to achieve. We need to win and Linz need to win, too. Everyone on both teams knows that it’s crunch time now and we don’t want to take this longer then needed.” Fellow Forward Marco Pewal added: „We’ll play offensive, putting pressure on our opposition. We need to play good hockey and skate hard because one thing is clear: Linz won’t roll over to die. They’ll fight until the siren at the end.”
Thomas Koch has 77 points and will try to catch up with Linz’ Pat Leahy while Ryan Duncan needs three goals to reach Warren Norris 35. Brent Aubin is the only player to score three goals in the Finals.

The Game will be shown Live on Sky Sport, the channel will be open up for all Sky Sports Austria customers in due time. Should the Series end on Tuesday night, MVP Alex Westlund will receive the Ron Kennedy Trophy to honour his performances.
