On the couch, the play-free Eisbären Berlin could follow the action in the German ice hockey league on Sunday – and watch how others make them the leaders of the table. Because the Kölner Haie defeated EHC Red Bull Munich, the current German champion is now in first place.
In terms of absolute points, the Kölner Haie, who won 5: 4 in Munich, are even at the front together with Berlin. However, since the point quotient is also decisive this season, the KEC is only in fourth place, which should hardly have bothered the Domstadters on Sunday. Because after 16 defeats against Munich in a row, they finally managed to win against the Red Bulls. The KEC was twice behind before it moved away to 4: 2 and the butter couldn’t be removed from the bread.
There was also a good mood among the Rhenish rivals. With the 4: 1 against Bietigheim Steelers, who were particularly good in the first third, the Düsseldorfer EG not only celebrated a six-point weekend, but also their third victory in a row. The Wolfsburg Grizzlies, who failed to score at home, were on the losing side. In the end there was a 4-0 defeat against Fischtown Pinguins Bremerhaven.
After a 1: 3 deficit against the Schwenninger Wild Wings, the Iserlohn Roosters showed fighting spirit and equalized to 3: 3. But it is not enough on more than one point. The guests won 4: 3 after extra time. The overtime lasted just 19 seconds before Colby Robak was successful for Schwenningen.
ERC Ingolstadt beat Adler Mannheim 4-0, but scored two empty net goals. The Krefeld Penguins conceded a clear 1: 5 against the Straubing Tigers, who had to play again on Tuesday – again in the Rhineland, at DEG.
