- Geneva wins the early game of the 12th round of the National League at home against the SCL Tigers with 8: 1.
- In the opening third, the guests left a double excess of 2 minutes unused, while the home team scored 5 of their 8 goals in the power play.
- For Langnauer it is the third loss in the third game of the new season.
Gianluca Zaetta is not to be envied. SCL Tigers’ substitute goalkeeper – regular goalkeeper Ivars Punnenovs is out with adductor problems – has already conceded 18 goals in 3 games. In general, that’s one or the other hit too many. The only 20-year-old to play for the EVZ Academy in the Swiss League last year can hardly be blamed for anything.
The guests made scoring goals too easy for the people of Geneva, even through too many indiscipline. The home team scored 5 of the 8 goals with (at least) one more man on the ice.
A double strike follows a double majority
At the same time, the Tigers didn’t take their chances. A 2-minute double majority in the 12th minute, for example, let them pass without any significant chance. Nolan Diem (14th) managed to equalize 1: 1 shortly after. After that, however, the disaster ran its course from the Emmental’s point of view.
Before the end of the third third of the start, the Geneva team was away 3-1. Following a rebound off Zaetta, Eric Fehr made it 2-1 with his third goal of the season. Seconds later, 13 to be precise, Damien Riat doubled to 3-1.
Power play: that’s what the Genevans can do
As a result, Geneva had the action under control. Towards the rear, the French-speaking Swiss allowed little. And up front, the hosts happily gathered. Tyler Moy (24), who opened the scoring in the power play in the 7th minute, increased to 4: 1 after returning from the penalty area. Linus Omark (38th) used the fifth power play to make it 5-1.
In the final third, the Tigers were stumped. Noah Rod, Omark and Stéphane Patry made Francophone Switzerland’s runaway victory perfect with three more goals in the power play.
