Steinbach Black Wings Linz rectified their defeat at home to Vienna on Sunday and got back on winning ways with a 4-1 home win over HC TIWAG Innsbruck - Die Haie. It was already the seventh win of the season for the Upper Austrians, which passed the Tyroleans again in the standings and take second place. The Linz team again fielded goalie Rasmus Tirronen and he had to take a goal against right after 39 seconds, Innsbruck took the lead on the power play through Daniel Leavens (1./PP1). But the home team turned the deficit until the 9th minute, Shaw St-Amant (7.) and Michael Haga (9.) provided the goals. The decision then came in the final period: first the Linz side survived a five-minute shorthanded situation, then Graham Knott ensured the final score with a brace. It was Knott's second multiple-goal game of the season. Linz also won the second duel of the season with Innsbruck and the "Haie" suffered another defeat after three wins in a row.

Villach gives Asiago seventh loss in a row
EC iDM Wärmepumpen VSV extended the losing streak of league newcomer Migross Supermercati Asiago Hockey, as the "Adler" won 6-4 at home, also winning the second duel of the season with the Italians, which are now without a point for seven games. Robert Sabolic (17. and 21.) made up for the early VSV deficit with his second brace of the season, then Villach was always ahead, but struggled to keep the efficient visitors at bay. Asiago made four goals out of 17 shots on goal. In the end, too little to win the game. Villach picked up its fifth win of the season and moved up three places in the table and is now fifth.
