Foxes celebrate lackluster opening win

The start has been made: Next to debutant HC Pustertal Last year's finalist Bozen also started the new season with three points. In front of just over 1000 spectators, the White-Reds celebrated a 5-4 win against HC Orli Znojmo, which was never in danger, but at the same time clearly revealed deficiencies.

On the offensive, HC Bozen was always able to put some pinpricks worth seeing thanks to the individual class of its cracks. The otherwise pale Dan Catenacci hit the mark after a great individual action. However, it was also made clear to neo-coach Doug Mason that there was still room for improvement both in the structure of the game and in their own third.

Due to the holes and individual inaccuracies in defense, the Czechs, who were otherwise clearly inferior, were kept in the game until the end. In this regard, we can look forward to the next away game in Salzburg, where the first real test awaits the Foxes. The key moments of the game After a meager 11 minutes, Anthony Luciani shakes the Foxes awake with the 1-0 away goal. The home team reacts with a lot of bite and pull towards the opposing goal. Within 156 seconds (!), Bozen turned the result on its head and moved away to 3-1. Brett Findlay with a rebound, Alex Trivellato with a hidden long-range shot and Domenic Alberga after an assist from Dustin Gazley hit the mark. Znojmo didn't get a foot on the ice until the end of the starting third, but then Bolzano's urge fizzled out again. When outnumbered, Nick Plastino cannot clear the target, Filip Ahl accepts the gift and reduces the score to 2:3. Celebrations on both sides in the 39th minute: After a slapstick performance with a double hit on the post, Anton Bernard raises his arms – 4:2. But the action immediately shifts to the Bolzano goal, where goalie Kevin Boyle cannot control the target and Samuel Frejes slides in. Dan Catenacci breaks the ice hockey lean diet in the ice wave with a real piece of cake. In the 44th minute, the Canadian evaded two defenders, hit goalkeeper Pavel Kantor and made it 5-3. The final point was set by Znojmo's Vojtech Nemec, who made it 26:4 with 5 seconds left. However, the Bolzano victory was already secured.
