The Vienna Capitals celebrated a 4-1 win at the Steinbach Black Wings Linz on Friday evening and booked their ticket to the pre-playoffs.
Jonathan Oschgan gave the home team the lead in the 15th minute in an intense game. Randy Gazzola found the right answer before the first break (18th). Simon Bourque gave the Capitals their first lead after a counterattack (28th). In the final third, Zane Franklin scored for the Viennese (43′), Carter Souch made the final decision with his goal into the empty goal (59’/EN).
Statement Kevin Constantine, head coach of the Vienna Capitals
“I think we played a very stable away game. Sometimes it’s hard to win if you don’t score first. So it was a nice comeback from us. We didn’t allow many chances. The offensive line, consisting of Felix Koschek, Mitch Hults and Benjamin Lanzinger, delivered again today. They were already very productive in Ljubljana. We got important saves at the right time from Sebastian Wraneschitz. I like it when our team plays with corners and edges when we “Zane Franklin was an example of this today. He scored an important goal, but also recorded important blocks and was involved everywhere. We only needed one point to get into the pre-playoffs, but we’re not thinking much further than the next three important games. We want to secure home advantage in the pre-playoffs. That’s our focus now.”
The Caps are now seventh in the table with 64 points. Next Wednesday the Viennese will host the Moser Medical Graz99ers in the STEFFL Arena (7.15 p.m.).
