The EC Red Bull Salzburg won for the third time in a row and is now the new league leader. The Red Bulls prevailed with 3:1 on the return of Head Coach Greg Ireland to the HCB Südtirol Alperia. In the already fifth game of the season between the two teams it was only the second win of Salzburg, who took the lead in Bolzano already in the second minute of the game, through Mario Huber. In the 29th minute, Danjo Leonhardt increased the lead to 2:0 before the home side scored for the first time. Captain Thomas Raffl finally made everything clear in the 52nd minute. While Salzburg is the league leader with a minimal lead of 0.01 points over Ljubljana, Bolzano is currently sixth in the table.

Pustertal surprises in Klagenfurt
League newcomer HC Pustertal Wölfe surprisingly won with 3:1 at reigning champion EC-KAC. The hosts from Klagenfurt had an opponent at eye level from the beginning. Nevertheless, the KAC managed to score the opening goal in the 29th minute of the game. Thomas Koch scored in the power play. It was his tenth goal of the season. However, Pustertal's answer followed promptly. Not even three minutes later Ivan Deluca equalized to 1:1 and again only about two minutes later the "Wolves" turned the game completely. Jasse Ikonen from Finland scored an impressive goal to take the lead. Klagenfurt continued to struggle, but still had a few top-class chances. The final decision in favor of the guests was finally made by Shane Hanna 26 seconds before the end of the game with an empty-net goal. In the second duel of the season, it was the first win for Pustertal, which is in eleventh place in the table. The reigning champions of the ICE from Carinthia are currently outside the direct playoff places as seventh in the table.



Znojmo and Fehérvár with clear home wins

The Steinbach Black Wings Linz were defeated by Tesla Orli Znojmo with 1:4 and consequently suffered their fifth defeat in a row. For the Czechs it was the first win after two defeats in a row. In the standings, Znojmo currently occupies the important tenth place, the Black Wings are still at the bottom of the table. After the first period, the game was still balanced. A quick lead of the home side was equalized by Brian Lebler in the 18th minute. For the forward it was already the 15th goal of the season. After that, however, only Znojmo scored. They scored one goal in the middle period and two more in the final period. For the Black Wings it was the eleventh defeat in the thirteenth away game.

Hydro Fehérvár AV19 also won clearly at home against HK SZ Olimpija. The Hungarians won with 4:2 and climbed up to the third place in the table. Ljubljana had to give up the top spot in the table due to the second defeat in a row and is immediately ahead of AVS in second place. The guests from Slovenia even took the lead in their third duel of the season with Fehérvár. But in the end they lost for the third time. Petan, Retfalvi - who scored for the first time in the ICE - Horvath M. and Kuralt scored for the Hungarians.
