Holiday on Ice – the Steinbach Black Wings approach Christmas Eve in a very family-like manner and with a high level of fun. The optional morning training on December 24th will be an exhibition run by the cracks in the presence of their partners and children. Something like this strengthens cohesion and gives strength for the tasks ahead. The next puck hunt is scheduled for Tuesday, December 26th (5:30 p.m.). The “sharks” of HC Innsbruck are swimming into the Linz AG ice arena a bit toothless after the events of the past few days.
The Tyroleans’ fourth-best scorer of the season, Brady Shaw (9 goals, 15 assists), left the ship involuntarily. “There were internal incidents. Given the values that HC Innsbruck stands for, further cooperation is unfortunately impossible,” said manager Günther Hanschitz, explaining the drastic step. The Canadian Shaw played a total of 82 championship games for the HCI and recorded an impressive 96 points. From a sporting perspective, the departure of the league’s most valuable player from the past season is a serious loss.
Before the duel with the eighth team in the table, the Black Wings are primarily looking at themselves. Striker Nico Feldner would like to be there against his former club, but it is a bit too early after an injury. Then your colleagues have to sort it out. The Linz team won the first two meetings of the season with the “Haien”: a 3-2 win after extra time in Innsbruck was followed by a 3-0 win at Donaulände.
The Steel Wings, who are involved in the Alps Hockey League, also faced an opponent from Tyrol on Thursday. However, without success: In Kitzbühel we finished 14th in the table. (under 16 teams) a 1:3 defeat. Young professional Patrick Söllinger contributed to the 1-1 score in the second third (39th). Ex-Linzer Rafael Rotter provided two assists for the host “Eagles”.
