KAC co-coach Fischer: “This game was a good lesson for us”

The EC-KAC had to be content with one point at the start of the new calendar year, HCB Südtirol scored 12.7 seconds before the end of extra time for a 2-1 away win in Klagenfurt. KAC assistant coach David Fischer was not dissatisfied:

Post game commentary from Assistant Coach David Fischer

“It was a game that was both boring at times and exciting at times. HCB Südtirol has a style that requires a lot of simplicity; you can’t get past them with spectacle. Our team implemented it for a long time, but overall it didn’t last long enough. We had enough opportunities, but they had a strong goalie between the posts. Our penalty killing was excellent, but so was theirs. That was a game that awaits us in the playoffs. You could see that it’s still working out for us It didn’t feel good, we couldn’t act well and presentably in March and April: a player is on the ice for 24 shifts and in 23 of them it’s just about working, closing gaps, fighting through. Then you take advantage of that one game and then it was a good lesson for us today Let’s shake ourselves off, pay respect to our deceased bus driver in a joint ceremony tomorrow and on Saturday we’ll drive to Innsbruck with a professional attitude to do our job there.”
