Overtime | Vacation deniers and naysayers

The climbers All South Tyrolean clubs in the Alps Hockey League The HC Pustertal, the Rittner Buam, the HC Gherdëina and the Wipptal Broncos - they all started the season with completely different signs, all had to struggle with minor and major adversities during the regular season and yet: all 4 are going into the knockout -Phase. Not all of the Wolves' squad players were convincing, but they are one of the top teams in the league and once again a candidate for the final - at least. The Rittner Buam under new coach Santeri Heiskanen have initiated a squad shake-up and at the same time an austerity course, and yet they still made it back into the top half of the table in seventh place. In addition to Ritten, two other South Tyrolean teams are in the pre-playoffs: Val Gardena, which played great games despite a lack of consistency and a change of coach, and the Broncos, who defied the chaos surrounding the hall collapse in Vipiteno and were also able to qualify early for the next phase of the season . The Descent Parts of the ICE Hockey League It's playoff time, when every club is pulling out all the stops to achieve maximum success and outsmart their opponents. But we think: What happened last week in the ICE Hockey League has nothing to do with sporting rivalry. Rather, egomaniacs prevented a decision that shouldn't have bothered anyone. We are talking about the ban on Bratislava and Bolzano adapting their playoff program to the enormous distance between the two cities. The idea of varying home rights and game dates in the playoffs was already approved in the run-up to the playoff pick. But after the Foxes had chosen the Capitals from Slovakia as their quarter-final opponents and both teams had immediately agreed on changes to the game program, at least one league rival suddenly vetoed the decision. This stood in the way and forced the league leaders to reject the proposal to initially play two home games in a row. Whether anyone hopes to gain an advantage in a possible semi-final because of one more away trip is a mystery. One thing is certain: this has certainly not contributed to improving the climate between the ICE participants, which has already been tense since Feldkirch was not admitted.
