ICEHL: Black Wings Linz got their frustration off their chest!

The Steinbach Black Wings Linz got rid of their frustration against Fehervar and got the full three points for the first time since the opening round. Five wonderful goals in the first third ignited the fire of Brian Lebler and Co. and ensured a deserved 7-1 win.

Was the 3-2 win on Friday against the Graz99ers, which cost Harry Lange his coaching job, the initial spark? Yesterday the Black Wings Linz showed an incredible performance against Fehervar, handing over the red lantern to the Pioneers Vorarlberg.

“We were able to put our opponents under pressure and finally found a certain level of efficiency. We weren’t as relaxed in the first ten or eleven games as we were this time. We played honest ice hockey and stayed away from the penalty box. There were a lot of positive things there. The important thing is that we remain humble.” said Linz coach Philipp Lukas to the “Oberösterreichische Nachrichten”. Boss Nader is also happy, but warns the “Krone”: “The Graz victory has freed our minds, but we have to remain highly concentrated.”
