Augsburger Panther under pressure: Sands in Düsseldorf!

The Augsburg Panther again had to accept a bitter defeat in the Penny del, this time with 2: 7 against Düsseldorfer eG. In a game that was characterized by numerous mistakes and lack of fighting spirit, the Panther showed their weaknesses in the first third. After an early deficit by Alexander Ehl (4th minute), Nick Baptiste managed to equalize (6th), but the DEG quickly stopped. The guests shocked four hits in a row and made a clear deficit to the first break (1: 4), as reported on aev-panther.de

bad pass and insufficient fighting spirit

renewed alarming signs were also shown in the previous encounter against the Iserlohn Roosters, where the Panther went 2: 5. In this encounter, the first three goals of Iserlohn were made possible by catastrophic bad passes from Augsburg, while the defensive was unable to stop the Iserlohn attacks. Sven Ziegler in particular takes advantage of these opportunities ice cold and achieved a hat trick. The only bright spot was Chris Collins' goal in the 28th minute, but just a few moments later the Roosters pulled away again. Another goal was denied the Panthers due to an referee decision, which further weakened morality. According to ice hockey-online.news showed little fighting spirit, which only increases the worries about the impending descent.

The upcoming games against the Adler Mannheim and the Iserlohn Roosters represent a decisive challenge for the Augsburg Panther. It remains to be seen whether they can create the turn or whether the downward trend continues and the last place in the table is again.
