The SCB holds the red lantern for the first time since the 1986 climb, spends New Year’s Eve at the bottom of the table. Although Bern is still only a training session after ten days of quarantine and eight regular players (Beat, Colin and Jeremi Gerber, as well as Tristan Scherwey, Gregory Sciaroni, André Heim, Thomas Thiry and Mika Henauer are still not operational after their crown disease), would be Keller’s duel against the SCL Tigers was more possible.
Berna turns the game around in the last third, is twice ahead, even has a power play at the end, but conceded the 3: 4 with 93 seconds left. “You just have to bring a game like this home,” forward Vincent Praplan said bluntly. “It was not the will. We fought. But patience is lacking. We have to change some things, work much harder. We are doing well as a team, but maybe we have to be tougher on each other. Also in training “.
“It won’t get better this way in 2021”
Is very little work being done? Coach Mario Kogler says: “I can’t judge how hard the job was done during the quarantine. But now there are 14 games in January. There is nothing like playing hockey every other day. Everyone has to prove themselves over and over again. Have to work “.
Despite the defeat, the Austrian exudes confidence and shows a black humor. “It can’t get any worse. We are the last,” says Kogler. “However, we still have every chance. The guys are willing, they want to take a step. We have to pull ourselves together now, end the old year and then start the new year with On a positive note. Of course that’s easy to say. But it all has to start with a little push. “
In the spring, the SCB, which employed four coaches in 2020, missed the playoffs. You are now at the end of the table. It’s time to leave this year behind. But if we don’t work harder in the new year, it won’t get better, ”says Praplan.
The Bernese will continue on January 2 in Lausanne. But again they have to compete with a rump team. The eight missing players against Langnau will also not be used at Vaud.
