Yesterday the trip went for the Pioneers Vorarlberg to the Slovenian capital, where today the meeting with Olimpija Ljubljana is waiting.
“Dragons” with a hot start of the season
The Slovenes are currently in first place in the Win2day Ice Hockey League table. With three wins from just as many games, the “dragon” achieved the almost perfect start to the season. Especially in the two previous matches on its own ice, the goal machine from Olimpija ran in full swing. The hosts scored a total of 15 goals in the home games against the Capitals and Villach, and Brennan & Co prevailed 4: 3 in Graz after extra time.
Pioneers go into the game as an underdog
On the other hand, the Pioneers continue to wait for the first points. Although the Montfortstädter against HCB South Tyrol performed very well, especially in the first third, but in the end it set an equally clear and bitter 0: 6 defeat.
In the Tivoli Hala Tivoli, the Nygard cracks will not only appear as a clear outsider due to the table situation, it will be important to get the result from Friday from their heads as soon as possible.
