After the duel against the capitals of Bratislava, the capitals of Vienna now await the black wings.
On December 26, Dan Ceman celebrated his 1992 Steinbach Black Wings coaching debut and at the same time a 2-1 away win at the Vienna Caps. Ten days later there is now another exchange of blows against the third of the ICE table. Even if the Linz team failed to win the last four games, the performance curve points in the right direction.
Like Andrew Kozek, who is now getting better and better and has scored four points (3 goals / 1 assist) in the last three games. “Kozy now skates a lot more, is much more involved in the game and has a better chance to score. He just feels better now and that of course helps us score more goals, ”says Dan Ceman on the importance of the Canadian to the team.
Of course, the head coach is still not satisfied with the results: “Against Bratislava we had trouble getting our performance in more than 60 minutes. We are on an excellent track 75 percent of playing time and we play at a great pace. Now we are also creating many more offensive actions and scoring opportunities. The problem is that we cannot maintain our intensity throughout the playing time, we allow opponents to score easily. “
For this reason, the 47-year-old hopes that his team will improve its defensive behavior: “The Capitals remain faithful to their line, regardless of who they play against. They keep the target well in their ranks, so we have to defend better around our target than we did against Bratislava. We definitely need intense and passionate defensive work to defend ourselves against them. “
In the current season, the Linzers have always shown a good figure against the Caps and were able to win two of the three games.
