Geneva with one skate

Despite the last victory last Tuesday, after a shootout at the Zurich's ice, eagles are still flying low and it was time to play a game that could please fans at Geneva. There has been an early game stretched on both sides, with a false rhythm, and no real action worthy of the name. The first goal came at the second power-play and was scored by Cody Almond, after Jeremie Kamerzin slap at the blue line. 

Without being transcendent, Geneva took the game in hand and doubled the lead by John Fritsche. It was not a great Geneva but a bad Biel on the ice. 

The second period changed, and Biel came out stronger then the first period. But even if Biel was more dominating then Geneva the actions near Stephan's goal were not many. Biel's coach Kevin Schläpfer was not a happy man, the forwards on the team were supposed to be the strongest link, and those first six games show the contrary. 

The third period showed two teams already thinking about Saturday's game specially after the third goal scored by Simek. Today Geneva will play at Fribourg and Biel will be visited by Bern. Two derbies were things could get easily hot inside and outside the ice. 

Tobias Stephan with 40 saves and a shutout deserved to be the best player on the ice. 

Lugano 3-4 Davos

In this sixth round of LNA, Lugano end's with the fourth consecutive defeat. After the five points obtained in the first two games of the season nothing goes well at Resega...

After just five minutes of play Davos scored the first goal by top scorer Marcus Paulsson, moments later the guests also found a way to score  thanks to Perttu Lindgren. After that second goal Patrick Fischer wisely decided to call time-out and that worked well because Mclean find a way to score the first goal for Lugano in a shorthanded goal.  

In the second period the two teams not tried too much adventures in the opposite side but the breakaway line composed by Sciaroni-Walser-Hoffmann showed up for work and scored the third. At the end of the middle period, the situation for the home team got worse with the fourth goal scored by Dario Bürgler.

In the last period Fischer has decided to rely on the trio Domenichelli-Metropolit-Ruefenacht to try to grab at least a draw and Lugano seemed to be much more toned. Schlumpf scored the second and Walker score the third but has said was to late. The ideas for score were over. Davos defended well until the end of the game. Metropolit with two assists was the best man from Lugano. In Davos side the line Sciaroni-Walser-Hoffman is the surprise of the league in the first six games.
