Tranås AIF left Grums with a 3-2 road win in regulation, built on a two-goal third period. The visitors scored twice in the final frame while Grums managed only one, and that margin was the game.
The teams traded goals in the first for a 1-1 split, then played a scoreless middle period that left the score frozen at 1-1 after 40 minutes. The decisive stretch came late: Tranås took the third period 2-1 to close out the 2-3 final, with the turning point squarely in the last 20 minutes.
The number that matters is the period breakdown: 1-1, 0-0, 1-2. Tranås needed only one period of separation, and their third-period output was enough to turn a tied game after two into a regulation road win.
