In the final section, Freiburg increased the number of hits. As a result, former Steeler Calvin Pokorny scored from the blue line in the 45th minute. Just over three minutes later, Nirschl brought the puck over the line after a well-executed attack by Wolves almost in the goal area to take the lead (49′). “I’m glad that we didn’t show any panic after the equalizer, stayed in the system and continued to believe in victory,” analyzes Daniel Naud.
The Steelers’ defense held up to the hosts’ attacks. And exactly two minutes and 53 seconds before the end, Arkadiusz Dziambor also scored from the blue line to make it 2-1 for Bietigheim. The Wolves then threw everything forward and took goalie Benzing off the ice for a sixth skater around 90 seconds before the final siren. But the disc didn’t want to cross the line. Daniel Naud: “In the end we were a bit lucky.”
However, the Steelers don’t have much time to enjoy their success. The reigning DEL2 champions Towerstars Ravensburg will be coming to the Ege-Trans-Arena on Sunday (5 p.m.).
