The inaugural Finnish Champions in women's ice hockey were HJK Helsinki, winners of the 1983 Naisten SM-sarja final tournament.
In an unexpected twist, Tiikerit and Ässät were tied in second place at the end of the regular season with ten points, identical win-loss records, and a goal difference of exactly +22 each.
Both SaiPa and Haukat found no success against the top three teams in Lohko A, splitting their two-game regular season series to win one game each.
Jaana Rautavuoma of Ilves finished the season ranked second in Lohko A and the league overall with 29 goals and league-leading 13 assists for 42 points in 8 games.
As would be expected for the team that swept the season, Ilves dominated the scoring table with six players ranked in the top ten.
The exception were the Shakers, who did not win a single game in the season and amassed a goal differential of -124, the worst in the league.
