Both EC Bregenzerwald and the KAC Future Team wanted to get back on the road to success. Two defeats recently saw the Vorarlberg team drop to seventh place. The Carinthians even had to leave the ice as losers six times in a row. Klagenfurt won the first duel of the season 5:2, but Bregenzerwald got off to the better start on Friday and took the lead in the fifth minute: Robert Ossipov scored his first goal for ECB with a shot into the far corner. 



The hosts went into the first break with this narrow lead. Shortly after the restart, the Carinthians equalised through Oliver Lam. After winning the puck at the own blue line, the KAC forward went five-hole on goalie Alexander Schmidt. The visitors even missed the chance to take the lead on another counter-attack, but shortly afterwards the home side went ahead again after a period of pressure and Daniil Kulintsev lit the lamp at the second attempt. The team from Vorarlberg then increased the pressure and decided the game in the middle period - they scored four goals within three and a half minutes, mainly from distance, to take a clear 6:1 lead after 40 minutes. Erik Embrich added a powerplay goal in the final period to make it 7:1, with the visitors then scoring the last of the night. Bregenzerwald returned to the top six with their sixth home win from seven games. The team at the bottom of the table from Klagenfurt, on the other hand, lost for the seventh time in a row.
