DEL: EHC Red Bull München will face the Schwenninger Wild Wings
"It was fun like every year, but now we will focus on the league," said Patrick Hager after the 1:5 in the round of 16 second leg at EV Zug. The captain and his teammates will take a bus from Zug, Switzerland, to Baden-Württemberg at noon today, where our team will face the Schwenninger Wild Wings on Friday (7:30 p.m. | LIVE on our app's blog).
Tick off Zug, extend series
Hager's analysis of the two games in the CHL round of 16 was brief: "Zug deserved to win over both games." The Red Bulls had to go "all in" with the Swiss after the 1:5 in the first leg - fatal against a top team like Zug. "They punish something like that immediately," said Hager.
Tick off and move on! The full focus is now on the PENNY DEL. There it runs as is known for the team of coach Don Jackson. Munich is at the top of the table and is currently the only team in the German Ice Hockey League to have scored more than two points per game. On Friday, we could bring in the fifth victory in a row. Scarcity of goals in Schwenningen The record against Schwenningen speaks clearly for the Red Bulls with eight victories from the past ten duels. In the only encounter this season, however, we had to admit defeat with 1:5.
Scarcity of goals in Schwenningen
The record against Schwenningen speaks clearly for the Red Bulls with eight victories from the past ten duels. In the only encounter this season, however, we had to admit defeat with 1:5.
Scoring goals has not been one of the hosts' strengths so far. The team of coach Harold Kreis has scored 43 goals - the second fewest after Augsburg. For this, the table-12th conceded the third-fewest goals (50, like Munich). A large share of this has the strong goalkeeper duo.
Top goalies on both sides
Strong keeper Joacim Eriksson impresses with a catch rate of 93.03 percent, his colleague Marvin Cüpper (94.33 percent) is even slightly better, but the backup has only played four games.
Eriksson was voted the best goalkeeper in the league in 2021, the Swede thus followed Mathias Niederberger. Our Goalie has already received the honor twice (2016, 2020). On Wednesday, the 29-year-old celebrated his comeback in Zug after a long injury break. Niederberger stood in this DEL season ten times between the posts, only once went the Red Bulls as losers from the ice (3:6 in Cologne on the first matchday).
