It's my opinion but...
It's a very stupid qualification system (compared for exemple to the Swiss League) now 4 of the 6 remaining KEY games will inlcude an already qualified team (Örebro) and an eliminated team (Västeräs) who had no more motivation
Easy to say that, but according to the majority of hockey fans in Sweden this is the heart of Swedish hockey, and most of the people are upset with this being removed until next season.
The reason we have such a strong second division is because of this system, and a lot of people think the second division (Hockeyallsvenskan) will lose skill in the upcoming years from now.
Added: Just by watching the average attendance, this qualification system is hot!
Average attendance in the playoffs: 6696
Average attendance in Kvalserien: 6236
Average attendance in the regular SHL season: 5983
Every team's average attendance in the qualification system:
Malmö (2nd division): 9289 (arena capacity: 12.800) with one home game remaining.
Djurgården, Stockholm (2nd division): 8044 (arena capacity: 8094) with one home game remaining
AIK, Stockholm (SHL-team): 6876 (arena capacity: 8094) with one home game remaining
Örebro (SHL-team): 5046 (arena capacity: 5200) with one home game remaining
Rögle (2nd division): 4157 (arena capacity: 5200)with one home game remaining
Västerås (2nd division): 4032 (arena capacity: 4902) with all home games played
