HCB South Tyrol: What happens if…

The Foxes are still on course for the top 6 and therefore still have the chance to qualify directly for the play-offs. Egger & Co. are in 7th place in the table, with the same number of points VSV (6th place), one point behind Dornbirn (5th) and with four points less than that Vienna Capitals (4.). It is clear that Vienna has the best starting position for the remaining two games with its points account - also because the Caps have two tasks that are anything but impossible with the away games at Olimpija Laibach and HC Innsbruck. That's why it would probably take a medium-sized ice hockey miracle for Vienna to catch up with the competition in the final spurt. Bolzano is better in the direct duels with Vienna But nothing is impossible. So if Vienna actually made such a superlative faux pas, it could be that two teams would be tied in 6th place on Sunday evening. What would happen if the HCB was one of them? The people of Bolzano have the best result in direct duels with Vienna, which, in the event of a tie, would be overtaken by the Foxes, as the HCB won three of the four games of the season.

Villach is ahead However, the picture is different in the scenario of a tie on points between the HCB and the VSV. The home team triumphed in each of the four matches, but since Villach still took a point in the Bolzano ice wave after an overtime defeat, the Carinthians are just ahead. At the weekend, VSV is in action at home against Klagenfurt and Znojmo.

Against Dornbirn we would need a win with a two-goal difference The situation between the HCB and Dornbirn is also explosive. The Foxes currently have one win and one goal less in direct duels than the Vorarlbergers. If the two teams were tied on Sunday evening, Insam & Co. would be ahead in a direct comparison if they had won the duel against Dornbirn on Friday with a two-goal lead. So the situation is complex. In order to avoid the tedious calculations, the HCB has a simple solution: The Foxes would have to master their tasks against Dornbirn (Friday) and Fehervar (Sunday) and grab the six points - then the Bolzano team would be mathematically fixed Pick round. And we could leave the calculations to others.

The final program of the top 6 candidates: 4. Vienna Capitals (73 points) Olimpija Laibach – Vienna Capitals HC Innsbruck - Vienna Capitals 5. Dornbirner EC (70 points) HCB South Tyrol – Dornbirner EC Dornbirner EC – Black Wings Linz 6. EC VSV (69 points) EC VSV – EC KAC EC VSV – HC Orli Znojmo 7. HCB South Tyrol (69 points) HCB South Tyrol – Dornbirner EC HCB South Tyrol – Fehervar AV

In the event of a tie, the winner... Bolzano – Vienna: Bolzano Bolzano – Villach: Villach Bolzano – Dornbirn: Bolzano , if it wins by more than one goal on Friday The table 1. EC Red Bull Salzburg 85 points 2. Black Wings Linz 82 3. HC Orli Znojmo 74 4. Vienna Capitals 73 5. Dornbirner EC 70 6. EC VSV 69 7. HCB South Tyrol 69 8. EC-KAC 65 9. Fehervar AV 56 10.
