The Steinbach Black Wings are on a roll and have always scored points in the last eight ICE Hockey League matches. The bottom line is that the fifth-place team has had 19 out of 24 possible points since September 29th, which is very appealing.
On Friday (7:45 p.m., live ticker on nachrichten.at) In Bolzano, the freshness factor may also speak for the Linzers, especially since the South Tyroleans, who had started the season poorly, were still in action in the Champions League on Wednesday (0-1 once morest Stavanger). Regardless of this, things have been looking up once more for the HCB, which made it to the league final last season, since three weeks since the return of coach Glen Hanlon.
On the Black Wings side, the desire for revenge is particularly great with striker Emilio Romig, who missed three games due to a suspension in the best-of-7 quarter-final series in March, which was only lost in the all-important seventh match. The 31-year-old had given Ryan Culkin, who had since emigrated from Bolzano, a severe blow with the cane.
“It was a nasty series, but I still enjoyed it on the ice. I think it’ll be fun for sure. It’s fun when there’s a little bit of fire in it,” said Romig. Also Linz’s home match once morest KAC on Sunday (5:30 p.m.) will be special. It is dedicated to ex-defender Martin Schumnig, who has ended his professional career. Time to recognize his achievements.
