Ritten dreams of a magical night

After the important 4:3 away win after extra time in Asiago, Ritten now has the first three match pucks available. In the series, the team from Klobenstein leads 3-1 and now wants to win the game in front of their own audience. The outstanding player in Game 4 was Thomas Spinell. The 26-year-old Rittner practically single-handedly shot Asiago away and scored the decisive 66-4 with his hat trick in the 3th minute.

Now it's back to the Arena Ritten, where the Italian champions have already won both matches against Asiago. Because Ritten leads 3-1 in the series, Tom Barasso's team is under pressure. The Italian runners-up absolutely have to win to force a sixth game.

A look at the statistics But the cards clearly speak for Ritten. In a total of nine duels this season, the “Buam” left the ice as winners eight times. Plus, Ritten is a force at home. In 26 home games there were just five defeats. When it comes to goals between the two teams, Ritten is clearly ahead with 30:19 in the nine games. But the key point is again the power play. The Italian champions are the most efficient team in the majority (24,4%) and scored three goals in four games against Asiago with one more man on the ice. In the duel of the top scorers in the playoffs, Asiago's Krystofer Kolanos is with 20 points ahead of his teammates Anthony Nigro (14), Giulio Scandella (12) and Ritten attacker Janis Sprukts (12).
