    Live from Fribourg, this is Alain Hauert. I wish you all a good night! (22:49:35)
     
    Antti Törmänen (Coach, IFK Helsinki):
    "My feelings after this match are quite mixed. We had a lot of chances and our efficiency was quite poor, this is the main reason why we didn’t win this game. But im also proud that my team found a way to come back twice, after being 1-0 and 2-1 behind, this tie is not bad as a base for the home game."

    "Next Tuesday we can play in front of our crowd, on home ice, and we will have to find the power to get a strong match. We need a win, thats clear, but I am sure we can grab this one at home!"
     
    Gerd Zenhäusern (Coach, Fribourg-Gottéron):
    "For me it was a special game as it was my first CHL match as a head coach. In fact that makes me proud. On the other side I’m not totally satisfied, because I think we could have won this game."

    "Still we have to admit, that Helsinki deserved the equalizer over the whole game and now we must show our best hockey to advance to the next round. The advantage is now on the side of IFK."

    "What makes me believe in our chance is the fact, that some of my players should come back from injurys for the next game, but today also the young players that we had to put in our rooster did a good job and I was happy with their performance."

     
    Thank you for your interest in this live report, I will be back at BCF-Arena in Fribourg for you in case that Fribourg-Gottéron can make it through to the quarterfinals.
