The outcome of the games caused great excitement in the league because the playoff places are highly contested. The PowerPlay of the Düsseldorfer eG in particular was not effective enough on this match day, which led to disappointment among players like Kevin Clark. Nevertheless, the teams remain motivated because the playoff places are highly contested and every point in this phase of the season is of great importance.
The upcoming games of the Penny-Del continue to promise exciting games that deal with important points. The EHC Red Bull Munich will compete against the Straubing Tigers on Thursday, while on Friday the duel between the Eisbären Berlin and Adler Mannheim is on the program. The fans can look forward to action-packed ice hockey while the teams are fighting for the coveted playoff places.
