Storhamar Hockey Hamar
Tuesday 22.09.2015, 19:15 • Eisarena Salzburg • Champions League • 1/16 Finals
     
    Welcome. Game starts at 19:15.
     
    At least the real hockey game starts tonight at 19:15 – CHL playoff match (round of the last 32) starts at the Salzburg Volksgarten against the Norwegian runnerup Storhamar Hockey. The Norwegian club is very popular with a fantastic fan delegation, f.e. there were around 400 fans with their team in the CHL group phase at their away matches in Prague and Geneva.
    Both teams had a non satisfied start in their home leagues, Salzburg is after 4 rounds bottom in the EBEL, Hamar lost two of their first 3 matches, too.
     
    In the Salzburg Red bull team there will miss a few players the match tonight. Captain Trattnig is doubtful, forwards Kristler and Sterling wont play fit sure and the strong Thomas Raffl got a tryout at NHL team Winnipeg Jets. Both Norwegian goalkeeper got decent stats in their CHL matches, so we are looking for a tough hockey match tonight!
     
    Teams are back after the warmup, tonight Weinhandl is starting goalkeeper at RBS, because Matthias Trattnig is injured, Daniel Welser is now the captain.
    The official CHL anthem sounds, so we have the last minutes before the puck is dropping.

    Great game from the whole Norwegian team, especially the goalkeeper Oskar Ostlund!

    Congratulations to Hamar and their fantastic fans! (21:24:02)
