The Graz99ers defeat KAC: Complete success in the ICE Hockey League!
The Graz99ers impressively demonstrated their skills by winning 4-2 in an exciting duel against the KAC. This game took place on Friday in Klagenfurt and marked the fifth round in the ICE Hockey League.

In the game against Klagenfurt, the hosts took the lead early with a goal from Matt Fraser in the tenth minute. But the Graz99ers were undeterred and turned the game around. Korbinian Holzer scored a beautiful goal from a tight angle, followed by Paul Huber, who made the game 3-1. His assist for Michael Kernberger, who had just come from the penalty box, was crucial and made it clear that the Graz99ers were playing well.
An addicting game
The balance in the game seemed to have been tipped when Simeon Schwinger reduced the score to 3-2 for Klagenfurt. But just a minute later, Casey Bailey restored the old two-goal lead. For this goal he received an assist from the last KAC captain Manuel Ganahl, which was an interesting twist, especially for the fans. With this win, Klagenfurt have already lost three of seven games and now have to wait for the next opportunity to improve their place in the table.
In other games in the league, the fans in Feldkirch saw a real rain of goals. With the Pioneers, who had already led for more than half the game, the defending champions seemed to be in dire straits. But two late goals saved them into overtime, where defender Ryan Murphy scored the decisive points on the power play.
Meanwhile, Ljubljana suffered an unexpected defeat in Innsbruck as the Tyroleans clearly showed they were willing to break their opponents' dominance. Goalie Evan Buitenhuis shone in goal and made a significant contribution to the victory. The Capitals, on the other hand, were once again out of luck and lost to Fehervar, which further clouded their home game record. Finally, the Black Wings Linz continued their success with another win and maintained their upward trend.
