Work victory category: Foxes crack the KAC bulwark

The Red Jackets once again competed without numerous top performers: Among other things, head coach Petri Matikainen was unable to rely on Nick Petersen, Lukas Haudum and Jesper Jensen Aabo, and only 18 field players were listed on the scoresheet. The KAC's thin personnel base was noticeable in the game, but the Carinthians demanded everything from the Füchse with their tactically clever and self-sacrificing style of play. In the end, the greater quality of the Hanlon troops prevailed. After a slow start, the Foxes turned things around and won 2-1 after extra time.

The game in front of around 2600 spectators was all about Angelo Miceli, who played his 300th match in the HCB uniform and was honored for it before the game. The Italian-Canadian exuded a lot of wit, but in the crucial moments he - like his teammates - lacked the killer instinct. And so Mitch Hults had to open the can once again. With the 1:1, the American provided the initial spark for the final chord in Bolzano. As so often in this game, the White-Reds got stuck on Dahm (and the post) - it went into extra time.

This was only a few seconds old when Ryan Culkin hit the edge of the goal and Dustin Gazley missed a solo. Shortly afterwards the time had come: after wonderful work from Gazley, Brad McClure gave them a well-deserved home win. The next game continues on Wednesday, when Asiago plays in the Sparkasse Arena for the second time in the current season (19.45 p.m.). HC Pustertal made a clear statement on Monday with a resounding win against bottom team Vorarlberg. The highlights Well In the first third, the fans are offered lean ice hockey food. The only excitement is caused by Paul Postma, whose shot slips through HCB goalie Sam Harvey. But the people in front of him scrape the puck off the goal line. Much better After the half-time tea, the Foxes acted with significantly more vigor. However, Miceli going it alone and Christian Thomas from a promising position lack the necessary cold-bloodedness. Dream goal Of all things, the guests strike in the HCB's strongest phase. Fabian Hochegger, coming out of the penalty box, beats Harvey with a Sunday shot into the corner. With a bit of confusion If the 100% chances are not in your favor, a bit of luck is required. Mitch Hults brings the puck to the middle, where Thomas Vallant deflects it unstoppably for his goalie. The arena is boiling Only one team plays in extra time - namely the HCB: After Culkin and Gazley narrowly miss the winning goal, McClure causes the arena to shake. The Canadian uses Gazley's sugar pass to make it 2-1.

Work victory category: Foxes crack the KAC bulwark

The HCB Südtirol Alperia game on St. Stephen's Day seemed magical for a long time. It was only in the final phase that the Füchse found the right recipe against the EC KAC and won narrowly but deservedly.
