Overview
- On Sunday, Eisbären Berlin beat table-topper Nürnberg Ice Tigers 4:1 to record their fourth straight DEL win, with Ty Ronning scoring a hat-trick.
- The result moved Berlin to 14 points in the league table, two points behind Nürnberg, who sit on 16 points.
- The match featured a controversial video review that upheld Nürnberg’s unusual opening goal as continued play and a 5+ game misconduct that left Nürnberg five minutes short-handed.
- Coach Éric Dubois said he will finalise the Salzburg squad in the coming days and is monitoring Manuel Wiederer’s condition while choosing between goalkeepers Jonas Neffin and Jack LaFontaine.
- A win in Salzburg would likely clinch Eisbären’s place in the CHL round of 16, so manager and coaching choices now balance short-term qualification goals with player fitness and load management.
