  • Ambri also had to admit defeat to Lugano in Ticino’s fifth derby. Lugano wins 3-1.
  • The SCB won the Berne derby against the SCL Tigers 4: 3.
  • Geneva jumps to second place thanks to a narrow 2-1 victory in Freiburg.
  • Davos secures the additional point against the Lakers on the penalty shoot-out. HCD loses defender Du Bois.

Ambri – Lugano 1: 3

The “bianconeri” keep their white jersey against Ambri even after the 5th season duel. Top scorer Mark Arcobello made the decision immediately before the second siren when he took advantage of a 2v1 situation. Daniele Grassi had put Ambri in the lead in the 26th minute. But Lugano benefited shortly after a double majority to even the score. Mikkel Boedker entered the scorers list with a blatant volley.

The Leventinos were very close to equalizing shortly before the end. In the end, however, it was Lugano’s Jani Lajunen who made it all clear with her empty netter. With Ambri moving to a new stadium next season, it is very likely that it was Ticino’s last derby in the time-honored Valascia.

Bern – SCL Tigers 4: 3

After the last two defeats in a row, the SCB has returned to victory. The man of the game from Bern’s perspective was Dustin Jeffrey, who scored two goals, including the winning goal to make it 3-1. In addition, the Canadian also had an assist to make Cory Conacher 4-2. Langnauer had the best start to the derby, arriving in the 14th minute with a majority goal from Andrea Glauser at 1-0. The SCB turned the game around in the opening third and was always up front ever since. Thanks to the total success, the city of Bern is only 2 points from the pre-playoff spot.

Davos – Lakers 3: 2 nP

4 attempts, 4 hits: HCD left no doubts about the winner in the penalty shootout. Aaron Palushaj, Teemu Turunen, Andres Ambühl and also Enzo Corvi found a way to get past Lakers goalkeeper Noel Bader. Because only Andrew Rowe was successful on Rapperswil’s side, Davos was even able to save the fifth shooter. In the regular season and postponement, Bündner and St. Gallen had a game on equal terms. Corvi made it 1-0 after just 52 seconds. Michael Loosli and Steve Moses turned the game in favor of the Lakers before Turunen, all still in the opening third, scored 2: 2.

A few minutes after the end of the game, the HCD announced that defender Felicien Du Bois had broken his wrist in the game against Rapperswil-Jona and had already undergone surgery. The former Swiss international had already announced the end of his career after this season. Now Du Bois will no longer return to the ice.

Freiburg 1-2 Geneva

The winners of the match on the Geneva side are quickly found. They are goalkeeper Gauthier Descloux and striker Eric Fehr. One of them rejected 42 of the 43 shots on goal in Freiburg. The other made the decisive goals with a double up front. For Fehr it was already the 19th and 20th hits of this season.

Thanks to the victory, the Servettiens extended their winning streak to 4 games. On the table, the “Grenats” overtake Gottéron and salute them from position 2.

All teams hit the 39-game mark

With SC Bern, the last of the 12 National League teams now have at least 39 games to play. If the regular season must be canceled, a champion will still be chosen. The deciding factor is not the table ranking, but the number of points per game. In the event of a season ending during the playoffs, the top seed will be crowned Swiss champion, provided they have not been eliminated at the time of completion.
