RBS captain Raffl stunned after Graz game: “This has no place in ice hockey”

A tough game between the Graz99ers and Red Bull Salzburg ended up being a lot to talk about. Shortly after his hit, Baltram was knocked to the ground on the Bulls side with a check to the head. As with Robertson, he is also suspected of having a concussion.



After the game, Thomas Raffl was stunned by how the encounter went. “Nobody wants to see that and it has no place in ice hockey. It has to be punished and will have consequences,” the captain explained in disbelief.

The game was extremely physical from the start and escalated increasingly as it progressed. Over 100 penalty minutes and a total of three match penalties underlined the excessive severity with which both teams acted – especially in the final minutes.
