The scene of the game
After 6 minutes Biel was behind for the first time in this series, following 9 minutes it was already 0:2. It seemed like the ZSC Lions were pulling away. But the Seeländer got a chance to connect in the power play. So far, the people of Biel have been impressively successful in the majority – as they did today, they scored three of the five goals in the majority. Fabio Hofer scored an important connection in the 12th minute.
The key figure
Biel captain Gaëtan Haas, who assisted three out of five Biel goals, what a team-friendly performance, world class.
The better team
At the beginning it was the people of Zurich who put the pressure on and prevented the end of the season from being attempted. But the Bielers didn’t let themselves be disturbed by two goals behind, they always came back and were the more efficient team in the end.
The twittering of the stands
Since the introduction of the playoffs in 1986, a team in the highest Swiss league has only managed to turn a 0:3 in a best-of-7 series five times: 2006 Lugano once morest Ambri, 2007 Zug once morest Rappi, 2008 Davos once morest Zug, 2022 Davos once morest Rappi (all quarterfinals) and 2022 Zug once morest ZSC (final). The ZSC Lions were far from it this time.
Here’s how to proceed
Not anymore for the ZSC Lions, they go on vacation. Biel is now getting a few days off. The Zug vs. Servette series continues with game 3 on Thursday.
