The team from Javorové also maintains a stable participation in the playoff quarterfinals – it last met in the year 2015/16. The Slezans have already successfully entered their first playoff under coach Boris Žabka, in the preliminary round series they beat Olomouc’s Hanáky 3:0. The steel players had in all matches significant shooting superiority, but in all cases they only won by a goal – in two cases only the setting decided.

In use in terms of numerical advantages, they ranked fifth with 20.59% utilization, the same rank also belonged to them in the success rate of weakening (84.18%).
Třinec’s number one Marek Mazanec so far in the September playoffs, Mazanec has caught all preliminary round matches with an average of less than one conceded goal per match and a success rate of 95%. He also performs remarkably well in the elimination fights as a defender Marian Adamek – with four assists, he is currently the most productive player of the Silesian team, contributing to two-thirds of the goals that Třinec managed to score in the playoffs. However, his start in the opening match of the quarter-final series is uncertain, as is the case of striker Marko Dan. The younger of the Kovařčík brothers, Michal, is also decorated with throw-ins – he completed the most of the team (70) and keeps his success rate at 68.5%.
From Třinec, the thirty-five-year-old dominated the statistics in the regular season Libor Hudáček (17+27). The Slovakian forward dominated the team’s productivity and took seventh place in the entire competition. He placed himself behind him Oscar Flynn (13+22). In the year 2025/26, the defender is one of the most self-sacrificing players David Musta. The three-time winner of the Masaryk Cup managed to block a total of 103 shots, and in this statistic he ranks third in the entire league. You will notice it most often on the ice Martin Marinčinwho had an average shift of 19 and a quarter minutes in the regular part.
