Graz 99ers fire head coach

The Graz 99ers reacted to their poor start in EBEL by releasing Todd Björkstrand from his duties as head coach and GM. Assistant coach Ivo Jan has been promoted to the position of head coach and will try to bring his team out of last place. Teppo Kivelä will continue in his role as assistant coach.

Graz 99ers sign Danish international

Austrian EBEL side Graz 99ers have made a big signing by bringing Danish national team forward Morten H. Poulsen to Central Europe for the 2015-16 season. Poulsen has played in 118 national team games for Denmark and was last playing for IK Oskarshamn in Sweden's 2nd division HockeyAllsvenskan.

EBEL - 20 missing minutes played

HDD Tilia Olimpija Ljubljana and Moser Medical Graz 99ers finished Sunday's second round EBEL match only last night in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The game on Sunday was cancelled after two periods (Graz leading 1-0) due to problems with ice. The temperature inside the Tivoli ice-hockey hall on sunday was 28 degrees Celsius. Last night both teams stepped on the ice once again and they finished the game. Olimpija came back from trailing one to winning 2-1 and this win surely gave the Dragons boost for tonight's eternal Slovenian classic: Olimpija against Jesenice.
