Daniel Frank's primal scream: Bozen suffers, but wins again

The Graz99ers are at the bottom of the league, but the top teams in the league have recently had a hard time against the Styrians. Salzburg and Villach only narrowly won, HC Pustertal even had to admit defeat. And for HC Bozen, the long away trip was anything but a walk in the park, but in the end the three points count - and the Foxes got them thanks to the 2-0 triumph. The HCB has thus extended its impressive winning streak to seven triumphs en suite. After the desolate start to the season, the Foxes played themselves into a frenzy and are now clearly on course for the top 6. The fact that the last match before the international break was won is thanks to two players. Svedberg parries, Frank scores On the one hand, there was goalie Niklas Svedberg, who returned to the HCB goal after his illness-related break and promptly shone with a shutout. In his three most recent games, the Swede, who was initially much criticized, only conceded two goals - his form curve is pointing steeply upwards. And then there was captain Daniel Frank, who won the match 1-0 with his goal. The primal scream after the goal shows how great the relief was - after all, the fan favorite had to wait 19 games for his first goal of the season. Frank scored his goal when he was outnumbered. The Foxes achieved this feat for the fourth time this season, more often than any other team in the league. The power play can still be greatly expanded. In addition, Bozen took extreme risks in the final third, also because they adapted to the rhythm of Graz. There wasn't much to see for 60 minutes of power ice hockey, like the Foxes celebrated against Salzburg on Friday. But that also shows: Bolzano can win the difficult and dirty games again. The key scenes Frankie! After Graz failed to hit the post with Taylor Matson in the first third, Bozen's captain Daniel Frank gave the HCB the lead: outnumbered, he sprinted away from the Graz defense and stayed ice cold in front of Lars Volden. The first goal of the season for Bolzano number 94 (27th) – and a very important one at that. HCB swims and hits In the final third there was a lot of fire in front of the HCB goal, but the much-maligned Niklas Svedberg made no mistakes that day and was solid as a rock. On the other side, Dustin Gazley hits the empty goal and makes the victory perfect (60th). Now the international break is coming up in the ICE Hockey League. The Foxes continue on Friday, November 17th with the home game against Villach. HC Pustertal suffered a 3:6 defeat against HK Olimpija on Sunday.
