Munich – In the second game after its Corona break, EHC Red Bull Munich conceded its fourth defeat of the season in the German Ice Hockey League.
Three days after the 2-0 win against newly promoted Bietigheim Steelers, Bayern lost 2: 4 (2: 1, 0: 1, 0: 2) against runner-up Grizzlys Wolfsburg on Friday evening and remain second in the table.
Although the strikers Trevor Parkes and Benjamin Smith returned to the squad at the EHC, the team did not look one hundred percent fit after many corona infections. After a good start, she fell behind after goals from Spencer Machacek (10th minute) and Christopher Desousa (17th), Fabio Pfohl (36th) and Trevor Mingoia (53rd) made the decision in favor of Wolfsburg, which was a series ended with three losses. Only Parkes (56th) and Austin Ortega (60th) scored for the hosts in the closing stages.
Title favorite Adler Mannheim prevailed 4: 2 (1: 1, 0: 0, 3: 1) in Bietigheim and remains the front runner with 37 points. The goals for the seventh Mannheim win in a row were scored by Borna Rendulic (4th), twice Markus Eisenschmid (9th .. 48th) and Jason Bast (18th). For the Steelers, Norman Hauner (7th) and Riley Sheen (44th) met.
Master Eisbären Berlin won against the Fischtown Pinguins from Bremerhaven after a weak start with 5: 2 (3: 0, 2: 1, 0: 1). The team of coach Serge Aubin turned it 0-2 deficit and came through the goals of national player Marcel Noebels (30th), Kevin Clark (38th), twice Giovanni Fiore (42nd, 59th) and national player Leonhard Pföderl ( 56.) to the overall deserved victory.
