Games without spectators can also be interesting at times. For example, it was the home game of the capitals of Vienna against Bratislava. The Viennese had lost five times in a row before Monday’s 3-2.
It was interesting because the instructions from the impulsive Vienna head coach Dave Cameron echoed in the empty arena. And the 62-year-old Canadian really got his players going – by switching, after bad passes, in almost every action. Only after 2-0 was Cameron a little calmer.
The Viennese played as Cameron led them: with great intensity. And they got off to a good start too. Marco Richter, in high spirits, used a Kittinger pass to make it 1-0 in just 108 seconds. Wall rose on pole and behind goalkeeper Baros after the break to 2-0 (24th). Moments earlier, Caps goalkeeper Pickard lunged into the left corner with a shot and sensationally caught the puck. “There were many actions in the game that were interrupted by the opponent. As a goalkeeper, you have to be on guard. I just jumped in that direction and the puck was in my glove. It was important because we had the next one right after Goal scored,” he said on loan from the Detroit Red Wings. Pickard will leave the caps for the United States on Thursday.
The Slovaks again made the game exciting with the 1: 2 through Bubela (40th) in the power play. And so it was until the end: Nissner scored 3: 1 (51st) after a nice backward pass from Loney, but Bratislava came almost instantly with a long-range shot from Ahl to make it 2: 3 (53rd).
The Viennese have to go to Fehervar on Wednesday. The Hungarians celebrated their ninth consecutive victory on Monday with a 2-0 win in Linz.
