Great Foxes rush from victory to victory

Andreas Bernard & Co. greet from the top of the table: After the Pioneers Vorarlberg and Olimpija Ljubljana, the HCB also beat the Black Wings Linz on Friday evening in the Sparkasse Arena. The way in which Glen Hanlon's team did it was extremely convincing: the Austrians were never given a chance, the home team always had the action under control - even though they only led by one goal for a long time. Ultimately, around 2000 fans celebrated a 2-1 win, which is positive.

The foxes were convincing almost across the board. In the offensive game, Bozen acted imaginatively and with a lot of pressure to score, but in defense life was extremely difficult for the Linzers and made easy for their own goalie Andreas Bernard. The 32-year-old didn't have to make any spectacular saves, but was always at his post and exuded great calm. The only thing Hanlon probably didn't like was the conversion of chances. Christian Thomas & Co. created a lot of opportunities, but handled them too carelessly. Because the defense did such a good job that evening, this fact was not significant.

Thanks to the nine points, the Foxes now lead the table together with the Innsbrucker Haien, who also started the new season with three wins. The big clash will take place against the Tyroleans next Friday in Bolzano. The game starts at 19.45:XNUMX p.m. The highlights Lightning start First, Derek Thomas misses two high-quality shots in the early stages, then Brad McClure exploits a Gazley dream pass with a well-placed shot from the slot. Opportunity usury Domenic Alberga, Matt Frattin and Thomas again missed the overdue goal to make it 2-0. Linz can thank goalie Rasmus Tirronen that the deficit is not greater. But not 2-0 With a double majority, Dustin Gazley shoots straight away, Mike Halmo pokes the puck over the line, the Sparkasse Arena celebrates, but the goal is disallowed after video study. But now After a long period of trembling, the Foxes fans can breathe a sigh of relief: After Daniel Mantenuto misses the umpteenth HCB chance, Thomas benefits from a Hults magic pass and hits the empty goal. Results cosmetics Dustin Gazley missed the goal with a solo attempt, shortly afterwards Logan Roe scored the meaningless 2-1.
