SM-liiga


 

SM-liiga is the top professional ice hockey league in Finland. It was constituted in 1975 to replace SM-sarja, which was fundementally an amateur league. SM-liiga has an agreement of cooperation with Finnish ice hockey federation Suomen Jääkiekkoliitto. SM is a common abbreviation for suomenmestaruus, "Finnish championship".

Winners

Winners of the play-offs receive gold medals and Canada-malja, the trophy of SM-liiga. Winners of the regular season receive a trophy (Harry Lindbladin muistopalkinto) as well, though it is in practice even less valued than bronze medals.
