Five games, zero points: The Krefeld Penguins are also in crisis in terms of sport. Yet another team has not won a win in the first few weeks of the unusual ice hockey season.
Krefeld / Düsseldorf (dpa) – The Krefeld Penguins remain a point supplier in the German Ice Hockey League (DEL) at the beginning of the year. The Kölner Haie humiliated the Krefeld, which was shaken by several personnel changes, with a clear 7: 2 (2: 1, 3: 1, 2: 0) away win.
The eight-time German champions continued their good start to the season with their third win in their fourth game. Krefeld still has no point after his fifth game and, as the bottom of the group in the north, is clearly behind.
“It’s just not enough at all. Everything is missing, “Krefeld’s captain Martin Schymainski grumbled at” Magentasport “:” The fact is: we have to give everything in every game, and we don’t even do that. ” At the Krefeld crisis club, which also showed clear defensive weaknesses against Cologne, there had been a real flight of staff shortly before the start of the season. Due to the corona crisis, the season started three months later than initially planned and has been played in a modified and shortened mode since mid-December.
According to the club, the Düsseldorfer EG lost 4: 5 (0: 2, 2: 1, 2: 1, 0: 1) in the 850th DEL appearance by captain Alexander Barta after extra time against the Grizzlies Wolfsburg. Daniel Fischbuch saved the Düsseldorf team with the equalizer shortly before the end of the extension and thus one point. After 32 seconds in overtime, however, Garrett Festerling scored the winning goal for Wolfsburg. The Lower Saxony overtook DEG in the table of the North group.
Like the Krefeld team, the Augsburg Panthers are waiting for their first victory in the South Group. The Augsburg team lost 1: 4 (0: 0, 0: 3, 1: 1) to the Nürnberg Ice Tigers, who achieved their first success of the season.
Adler Mannheim had already won the top game of this group on Saturday with a 3: 2 (2: 2, 0: 0, 0: 0) after penalty shoot-out against the previously unbeaten EHC Red Bull Munich. “It was a little difficult with the rhythm now. Just played every Saturday. It’s almost like football, “said Matthias Plachta, the decisive goal scorer in the penalty shootout, and added:” In terms of points, we are where we want to be. “
