Overview
- Cody Kunyk scored at 61 minutes to secure a 4–3 road win after overtime in Mannheim.
- Kyle Mayhew equalized at 59 minutes, four minutes after Marc Michaelis had put Adler ahead.
- Zachary Solow opened the scoring for Mannheim, with Augsburg replies from David Farrance—his first for the Panthers—and Thomas J. Trevelyan.
- The game was the first after a four-week Olympic break, and a pregame ceremony retiring Denis Reul’s No. 29 delayed the start in Mannheim.
- Markus Keller, who retired last season and now serves as team manager, was re-licensed and dressed as backup because Michael Garteig lacks a German passport under the league’s import cap.
