Foxes slide into the new year with bankruptcy

While Greg Ireland recently drove the HCB into somewhat calmer waters, the last few days in the Villach clubhouse were turbulent for several reasons. Although the Eagles won the last game against Olimpija Ljubljana 4-2, The sting after the 1:9 derby disgrace against the EC KAC is still deep. The case also concerned Derek Joslin, who played in the game mentioned above Victim of racist insults was, for unrest. Unimpressed by this, the Austrians played freely. For their part, the Foxes started strong, but then faded just as strongly and gave the game away after the interim score of 3-0. Villach triumphed 4-3 after extra time.

After the successes over Innsbruck and Dornbirn, the Ireland team suffered another setback. The Canadian's handwriting is slowly becoming apparent, but there are too many misfires that are uncharacteristic of the white and red team. In any case, it wasn't the recently strong Mike Halmo who stood out in Carinthia, but rather Angelo Miceli. The Italian-Canadian opened the scoring with two precise slap shots. Daniel Frank also had reason to celebrate as he scored for the first time in 68 days. The focus this evening, however, was the collapse after the 3-0 lead. Suddenly the intensity and concentration were missing. And so Villach turned the game on its head, not undeservedly.

The HCB continues on Sunday with the away game at Olimpija Ljubljana. After a strong start to the season, the Slovenians have recently stumbled, losing six of the last seven games. Wade Murphy & Co. won the first leg 6-2. The highlights Miceli first VSV goalie Andreas Bernard is warmed up in the starting minutes - and initially holds tight. However, when the unchallenged Angelo Miceli aims for the cross corner in the power play, he is powerless. Miceli for second A few minutes after the start of the middle third, Miceli runs down the left side, takes a shot and hits the corner with a blast. Frank gate barrier breaks After 68 days, Daniel Frank scores: The 27-year-old punishes a Bernard rebound and slots it into the empty goal. The last time Frank cheered was on October 24th at the Bratislava Capitals. Distraction photocopy Within 98 seconds, the 620 VSV fans were brought out of their seats twice when Anton Karlsson and Travis Oleksuk made the game exciting again with two deflections. DeHaas dropouts Around eleven minutes before the end, James DeHaas made a fatal mistake in his own zone, which Benjamin Lanzinger punished after a nice combination. Sudden Death In extra time, Dan Catenacci carelessly misplaces the puck, John Hughes thanks him and provides an exemplary assist to Chris Collins, who decides the game with a direct shot.
