And five for Bordeaux. The Boxers started their championship with a (short) defeat against Rouen. But since then, the Girondins have not been stopped. Olivier Dimet’s players won, this Friday evening, their fifth straight victory in the Magnus League.
This success, Bordeaux has acquired on the move, to Nice. Where the Aquitaine defense was intractable: author of 33 saves, Clément Fouquerel signed his first shutout of the season. The other man of the match, Girondin side, is called Maxime Legault. The Canadian striker, who arrived this summer from Grenoble, had not yet scored with the Bordeaux jersey on his back. He signed a hat-trick this evening, allowing his team to win 0-3. And now Bordeaux takes the lead in the standings, with two points ahead of Angers (whose match against Mulhouse has been postponed), Grenoble and Gap.
Gap, precisely, suffered a hell of a stop to Anglet. The Raptors were beaten in the Basque Country, facing a Hormadi who nevertheless remained on three consecutive defeats. Led 2-0 at the end of the first third (after goals from Victor Ranger and Jules Gallet), then 3-0 in the 28th (realization of Oskars Batna), the Gapençais never managed to come back. The Angloys even increased the score at the end of the evening, thanks to Emils Gegeris and Peter Hrehorcak. Final score: 5-1 for the troupe of David Dostal.
Fleury passes the 300 point barrier
On the ice of Cergy-Pontoise, Grenoble had to wait until the last third to get rid of the Jokers. The two teams were tied (1-1, goal from Damien Fleury on the Isère side and achievement by ex-Grenoblois Denny Kearney on the Ile-de-France side) when it came time to attack the final period. Nicolas Deschamps, scorer in power play, and Dylan Fabre finally offered the win of the match to the Brûleurs de loups (1-3). Scorer and passer, Damien Fleury took the opportunity to cross the 300-point barrier in the Magnus League.
Amiens, finally, was surprised on his ice at the start of the match by Briançon. The Red Devils opened the brand at the Coliseum thanks to the now essential Rudolf Huna. But the Gothics recovered in the second period: two goals in numerical superiority, signed Jérémie Romand and Tomas Simonen, then an achievement by Stanislav Lopachuk, all registered between 24th and 35th minutes, allowed the Picards to win 3-1 facing the Haut-Alpins.
