Eisbären Zell am See: seven victories in a row and the lead!

The Zeller Eisbären currently show an impressive form and have secured the league lead in the Alps Hockey League after a series of seven victories in a row. This remarkable comeback began after a catastrophic defeat against Liganeuling Khl Sisak on October 5, where the polar bears were sent from the ice with 1:10. In view of this heavy clap, many had no longer believed in the success of the team.

yesterday evening the polar bears had the opportunity to further consolidate their position by starting against the eagles from Kitzbühel-the direct pursuer on the table. Despite a deficit of 2: 4 to the final phase of the game, they achieved a remarkable turn, which, due to a goal by Fredrik Widen, led to the 5: 4 victory 46 seconds before the end. Managing Director Patrick Schwarz and the team saw this victory as a reward for the overall strong comeback of the last games.

The team spirit as the key to success

particularly highlighted is the team spirit that rules in the Zeller team. According to Patrick Schwarz, the defensive has been greatly improved and the team appears as a unit. "The past few weeks have shown that we work together as a team and support each other," he added. The players not only improved individually step-by-step, but also pull together in a collective. This became particularly clear after the polar bears only had to goals from the previous seven games, a drastic difference to the initial phase of the season.

Despite the previous success, the team remains humble. However, Patrick Schwarz warned against resting on the laurels and emphasized that the competition was particularly strong. "The league is more balanced this year than ever before, and we still have a lot of potential that we can exhaust," he said. The polar bears are aware that they have to work hard to keep their position and not fall back into old patterns.

The next challenge is waiting on November 1, when the team plays the last game against Celje before the IIHF break. Here you want to further expand the winning streak and celebrate another success in front of a home crowd. With almost 1,700 spectators who regularly go to the Kelit Arena, the polar bears have also learned to strongly appreciate the support of their fans. The audience is considered a seventh man on the ice and significantly strengthens the team spirit.

The Zeller Eisbären have put an impressive turn, and support from your own audience seems to be the key to further success. The upcoming games will show whether the team remains true to their shape and can still play in the upper half of the table.
