Caps head coach Dave Cameron made some line changes compared to last Friday's road game against MAC Budapest. In a scoreless opening period, the visitors killed four power plays of the Slovak champions and early in the middle frame Dominic Hackl made the breakthrough from distance. After Banska Bystrica tied the game, it was Benjamin Nissner who scored on a breakaway to restore the guest's lead. The hosts used an early power play to equalize again in the third and with no more goals in regulation the game went into overtime. With one second to go in the extra session, new arrival Kurt Davis scored the game winner for Vienna's second preseason win.
