Toothless wolves go under in the shark tank

The Wolves were simply absent for at least two thirds of the 2:3 defeat in the Tyrolean derby. The team from the green valley played unfocused and incorrectly for too long. So things will be difficult in the current “Weeks of Truth”.

Innsbruck wasn't challenged much and didn't show any miracles, but Puster's fighting morale was incomprehensibly left behind. Above all, the Canadian exceptional talents in the Haie attack presented the black and yellow defense with impossible tasks. Actually, the audience only saw the proven HCP virtues of the last few weeks in the final third.

The Finnish defense newcomer Vili Laitinen was on the ice when he conceded 2 goals and was left criminally alone by his teammates. In the final third, the youngster received a painful penalty in his own power play. Particularly serious for the Bruneckers is the injury to Sturm-Hirn Jasse Küchen, who had to leave the ice early. The Finnish thinker and driver is irreplaceable for trainer Raimo Helminen and a longer absence would be a horror scenario at this stage of the season. Highlights of the game It couldn't be worse After losing a target in Puster, Mike Huntebrinker has all the freedom and scores to make it 1-0 (2nd). 14 seconds later, the HCP defense plays a fatal bad pass and Simon Borque simply makes it 2-0. To make matters worse, Jasseikon twisted his leg without any outside influence and was eliminated. Congenial duo In the second third, Greg Carey gave the Black and Yellows a sign of life with a direct shot (2'). On the other side, Alex Dostie and Hunterbrinker are allowed to counterattack and the latter strikes ice cold (27th). Wolves toothless At half time, Innsbruck's 2nd line plays again unchallenged and Dostie scores with a long shot. 3 minutes later, Jan Lattner used a rebound in the power play. Carey reacts for the HCP with a photocopy of his first goal (34th). HCP is finally playing along Immediately after the restart, Haie goalkeeper Tom McCollum missed a rebound and Jakob Stukel curved around it to shorten the score. Pustertal is now rearing up, but nothing significant is visible anymore. On Friday, HC Pustertal will enter the ring at home against the current title holders KAC and have to show a reaction. the people of Bolzano who won against Graz today received Salzburg. It will be particularly important for the Black and Yellows on Sunday when their opponents in the home game are Graz.
