The Rouen Huskies have reached the finals in the French Elite League. They won the best-of-five semi-final series 3-1 against the Savigny Lions. An ineligible-player-ruling had given Rouen a 2-0 lead going into the weekend. Savigny avoided the sweep, when they defeated the Huskies 4-1 on Saturday. But one day later Rouen prevailed 3-1 to book the championship series ticket. Their opponent will be determined in the second semi-final between the Montpellier Barracudas and Templiers Senart next weekend. This series was on hold, as Montpellier played the European Cup Playoff.
