ICEHL: Does the HCI take a point in the second game of the Hungarian double?

The HCI meets Liganeuling FTC-Telekom today. This time the sharks want to be ready at the start.

The cracks of the HCI delivered a big fight yesterday, showed morality, but in the end lost 4: 5. Head coach Ryan Kinasewich was the start of the game in the stomach: “You can’t go into a game. We cannot drive here and after 6 minutes 0: 3. But the boys fought back, have remained stable. That was positive. Unfortunately, we didn’t hit the power play, otherwise”.

“We have to be there from the start”

For today’s game against FTC-Telekom, the motto is clear: “In this league you must not sleep in this league, every game is tight. Our goal for today has to be to be there from the start and then bring our game to the ice 60 minutes. Only then do we have the chance for points,” said striker Thomas Mader.

Today’s opponent is called FTC telecom. The start of the league was difficult for the 31-time Hungarian champion. After three games there are two home defeats against the VSV and the KAC as well as an OT defeat in Vienna. The team around the ex-sharks Brady Shaw and Tyler Coulter will do everything possible to take the first victory in Win2day Ice Hockey League against the Tyroleans.
