"A terrible start in the CHL for Färjestad, but Davos were brutally good. No doubt about that." En dyngdålig inledning på #CHL för Färjestad men Davos gör det jävligt bra, inget snack om saken... #fbkse — Uffe (@UlfClasson) 20. Srpen 2015
Another clean sheet. Another clean sheet as @HCD_News win 4–0 against @farjestad_bk on the road. #CHL — Champs Hockey League (@championshockey) 20. Srpen 2015
		The first period was close, but after HCD scored their first goal they pretty much owned the game to the final whistle. 4-0 is a great result for them to start the CHL season with. I want to thank you for following this live report! Good night from Karlstad. (22:12:32)
		Game over.
	58:04	Less than two minutes to go.
	56:28	FBK player Earl gets a two minute penalty for slashing.
	55:53	HCD keeps attacking. FBK are standing on their heels right now.
	53:26	Goal for Davos! MARCUS PAULSSON scores against his old teammates in the box play after a fantastic pass by Andres Ambühl!
	52:27	Puck out of play by Brejcik (HCD) and FBK gets another chance at the power play. Two minutes.
	51:03	FBK back on full strength.
The news team from Switzerland is wondering if Karlstad can come back after being behind 0:3. 2. Drittel vorbei: Färjestad – Davos 0:3* (Ambühl, Simion, Aeschlimann). Mal schauen ob die Schweden im Schlussdrittel antworten können. — TV Südostschweiz (@dobinidahai) August 20, 2015
	49:21	Persson (FBK) with a break away but Genoni denies him.
	49:03	Forster (HCD) and Earl (FBK) both get penalised for roughing. Earl gets 2+2 and we play 4-on-4 for 22 seconds and then HCD gets the power play.
	47:50	Amazing glove save by Dominik Has.. No, Genoni (HCD)!
	47:25	Another HCD penalty. Now for highsticking. 5-on-3 for FBK with Ambühl in the penalty box.
	47:00	Another HCD penalty, and power break. It's Aaeschlmann who gets penalised two minutes for tripping. Will FBK enter the goal sheet?
	45:27	HCD back on full strength.
	44:07	Gulas (FBK) with a chance but a good save by Genoni.
	43:23	HCD player Sciaroni gets penalised two minutes for slashing.
	40:01	Start of 3rd period.
		This period completely belonged to HC Davos. The score could have been even bigger, actually. But a hockey game is at least 60 minutes. Can FBK turn this around or will HCD take their 3 points back to Switzerland after the next period? Stay tuned!
	40:00	2nd period finished.
	39:07	Fantastic save by Genoni when Eriksson Ek (FBK) had, close to, an open net to score in.
	37:39	EDIT: No penalty. The referee takes it back.
		Today's attendance is 3312.
	36:40	Jörg (HCD) with a break away, but Haugen manages to keep the score from getting even bigger.
	35:13	FBK are frustrated and not very much is going their way. The passing is long gone and the scoring chances are easy to count.
	34:17	Goal for Davos! MARC AAESCHLMANN makes it 3-0 after a great pass from Simion on a 2-on-1 break away. Huge advantage for HCD right now. Assisted by: Dario Simion.
	33:48	Goal for Davos! DARIO SIMION makes the lead for HCD one goal bigger. A long range shot but Haugen in the FBK net had bad sight through one of his defenders legs. Unassisted. 2-0
	33:37	Power break.
	32:39	Ambühl with another good chance for HCD. He looked for the pass though and it was taken away.
	32:30	Back and forth but not much happening right now.
	28:49	Johansson (FBK) had his teams best chance of this period in the slot but the puck went over the bar.
	28:42	FBK back on full strength.
	27:40	Three reptile quick saves from Haugen on close range shots from Paulsson and Simion (HCD).
	26:41	FBK gets penalised for two minutes for too many players on ice. HCD with a new chance on the power play.
	24:38	HCD has taken this over both defensively and offensively.
	23:56	HCD back on full strength.
	22:24	Goal for Davos! ANDRES AMBÜHL with a backhand at the 3-on-5 boxplay on a turn over. Impressive! Unassisted.
	21:58	HCD player Brejcak gets penalised two minutes for roughing. FBK will play 5-on-3 for 28 seconds.
	21:58	..but there's a good chance for Eriksson-Ek (FBK), but Genoni holds it.
	21:31	FBK has some trouble getting the offensive to work.
	20:26	HCD player Walser gets penalised two minutes for hooking.
	20:01	Start of 2nd period.
		The players have re-entered the ice and the puck is about to drop.
		The first period is over and it's a scoreless one. FBK started off the period a little better than HCD and had a few good chances in their two power plays. In the end of the period, HCD came up strong though and hit the post in the final minute. We'll be back in about 15 minutes.
	20:00	1st period finished.
	19:32	HCD with some final attempts at the end of the period, and one shot in the post by Schlaepfer.
	18:00	Two minutes left of the period.
		HCD captain Ambühl went coast-to-coast and almost found a pass to a teammate to give him an open net. Now, however, FBK is back on full strength.
	14:34	HCD are putting great pressure on FBK. Some good chances immediately in the power play. One was a deflection just outside the post.
		FBK goalie Haugen gets penalised two minutes for tripping.
		Power break. Not very much to report from the last few minutes. A lot of tries back and forth but none of the teams are close to enter the goal sheet right now.
	11:03	A few good chances in the end of the power play but no score for the home team. HCD plays with full strength.
	10:36	..until now when Holös unleashed his huge slapshot from the slot, but Genoni came up big and saved it with his pads.
	09:52	No big chances thus far from FBK in this power play.
	09:02	HCD player Heldner gets penalised two minutes for holding.
	07:39	A big hit from "the norwegian nightmare" Tollefsen (FBK) on one of HCD's forwards.
	06:42	Power break.
	04:44	FBK established some good pressure in the power play but weren't able to score. HCD are playing with full strength.
	02:34	HCD player Jan Brejcak gets penalised two minutes for holding.
	01:10	A good chance for HCD but Haugen denied it.
	00:01	Game started.
		The players are back on the ice after warm up, and the first puck drop is less than a few minutes away.

HC Davos fans have arrived in Sweden Nun sind auch die HCD-Fans und unser Reporter in Schweden angekommen. Die #CHL kann beginnen! Update heute ab 18:00. pic.twitter.com/XGYbWU4xVd — TV Südostschweiz (@dobinidahai) August 20, 2015
		The first puck drop of the CHL 15/16 is approaching and one of the most exciting match ups in the first round could be this one, between Färjestad BK (FBK) of Sweden and HC Davos (HCD) of Switzerland. The Group E is the one with most championship titles. A total of 41 run over Davos, Färjestad and Pardubice, so it will be a real 'clash of the champions' throughout this group stage. Players to keep an eye on in this particular game could be Robbie Earl (FBK), who have spent his last three seasons in Switzerland, and Marcus Paulsson (HCD), who played for FBK between 2009-2013 to win the swedish championship twice. These players are expected to deliver for their teams, among many other great players on both sides. So sit back, relax and enjoy the Champions Hockey League.
		Welcome. Game starts at 20:00.
