Wednesday, 27. November 2024 | Preview PENNY DEL: EHC Red Bull München welcomes the Nürnberg Ice Tigers

Bavarian duel on Thursday: Confident Red Bulls host Nuremberg“Mystery tickets” available again// DEL - PreviewAfter three wins in a row, EHC Red Bull München go into their Bavarian clash with the Nürnberg Ice Tigers with confidence. Tickets for our home game on Thursday (7:30 pm) at the SAP Garden are still available.

“Everyone is prepared to stay in the system and put their own ego behind them,” said captain Patrick Hager after Tuesday night's 4:2 win against Schwenningen. He continued: “At the start of the season, we often forced the offense at the wrong time. Now we're no longer forcing it, but patiently waiting for our chance.”

// DEL - HIGHLIGHTS

That is paying off: Our boys have only conceded four goals in the last three games and have worked hard at the back. Maxi Kastner also praised the defensive work after the game against Schwenningen. It was no ordinary game for our striker with the number 93. He was on the ice for the 500th time for the Red Bulls in the DEL - and was honored for it before the opening face-off.

Our team's performance against the Wild Wings in pictures

Hager with plenty of Nuremberg experience

Hager has even made 954 appearances in the German Ice Hockey League. The 36-year-old made 60 of them against Nuremberg. None of his teammates played anywhere near as often against the Ice Tigers as Hager, whose 42 scoring points against the Franconians are also a team record. Although the captain missed the only duel this season, the Red Bulls won 4:0. On Thursday, coach Max Kaltenhauser's team - this time with Hager - will be looking for their second win of the season.

Ice Tigers outstanding on the power play

For that to succeed, we should stay away from the penalty box, among other things. Because the Ice Tigers have been playing in their own league on the powerplay since the beginning of November. Coach Mitch O'Keefe's charges have used 47.1 percent of their overtime situations (eight out of 17). That is by far the best rate of all DEL teams. Their position in the table can't quite keep up. The Ice Tigers are currently on course for the 1st playoff round. The fact that it is not enough for more is mainly due to the defense. 77 goals conceded is the weakest figure in the league.

DEL top scorer Barratt makes a guest appearance at the SAP Garden

In terms of offense, however, Nuremberg doesn't have to hide from anyone. 63 goals in 21 games - an average of exactly three goals per game - is something to be proud of. Evan Barratt has played a big part in this. The 25-year-old Canadian is playing an outstanding season. With 29 goals in 20 games, he leads the DEL scoring charts.

Barratt has only failed to score in five games this season, including his first meeting with our team.
