Eisbären Berlin: New goalkeeper Jake Hildebrand for the second half of the season!

On January 8, 2025, the Eisbären Berlin already played two away games against the Adler Mannheim this season. These started with a narrow 3: 4 defeat after extension in mid-October, followed by a 2: 5 defeat in mid-December, which the team looked back on dissatisfied achievements.

Currently, the polar bears are only one point behind the leaders in Ingolstadt. After a 1: 6 defeat against Ingolstadt before Christmas, they lost their latest game against Cologne 3: 5. Despite the last two defeats, the polar bears had no further defeats in the seven games.
