WHAT. A. HIT!

Kenny Creller shows no mercy as he goes for an open-ice hit on Alexander Wachter in the DACH zone.

It leaves the winger a little dazed and the DACH bench is screaming for a penalty!

The ref disagrees and the play continues while Alexander shakes the hit off and gets back up on his feet. And boy, he does not look happy…

The puck is yet again dumped into the British Isles’ zone. And yet again picked up by a Brit in Berry Blue.

But here comes Alexander! With murder in his eyes!

Berry had his head down for too long and couldn’t react on time. He takes the hit as well as he can...





And SOMEHOW Berry manages to keep possession and pass it to Rhys Pritchard!

The puck is moved into the neutral zone…

The Brits lose possession and the puck is dumped back into the British zone. You’d think they’d try a different tactic after it fails to work the first, I don’t know, 5 times?

But here we are again. The puck is retrieved by Denver Wolfe, and…

Oh boy… here comes Alexander again.

He goes shoulder to shoulder and cleanly breaks the puck away from Denver! Is it finally time for DACH to see some offense?!














Nope. They lose the puck and the play moves out to the neutral zone.

DACH has the puck again in the neutral zone and, I don’t believe it, they’re actually skating the puck into the offensive zone instead of dumping it. Genius!

Thomas Vanice brought the puck into British territory.
Passes it to Luca Veccelli, who shoots…!


















Juuuust a bit outside.

Rocco collects the puck for team DACH and we see a quick tic-tac-toe between him and Luca.

Rocco gets it back and one-times it…!

Missed the net by a mile.

Denver Wolfe sends it away for an icing.

Riley Kuse is ejected from the faceoff in British Isles’ zone after trying to win it before the puck was dropped. Mega Tron takes it instead.





Stirling wins the faceoff and they move the puck into DACH’s zone BUT immediately their attack is cut short! Daniel Kuster catches the dump-in and starts a quick counter!

Cassidy Lhotsky moves the puck into the British zone.

He dekes around Rhys and gets a shot off!

























Elizabeth Doyle was ready for it and with an open lane of vision we shouldn’t have expected anything but a save.

No dangerous chances have occured in the last two minutes but now we see DACH with pressure in the British zone!

Andrey Barbashev passes to Daniel Kuster who quickly forwards it to Noah Andros.

Back to Daniel who’s got his head up and sees that Andrey has snuck behind the defense right to the side of the net. The pass to Andrey is on the tape!

He quickly releases!



















But Jack Wilson gets his stick there just in time to steer the puck behind the net.

It’s not over yet! Cal Labovitch finds the free puck and tries to wrap-around!







The puck slides away from his stick before he can tuck it in…

BUT it turned into a perfect pass to Noah Andros in the middle of the zone who slaps it!

Missed the net...

Team DACH isn’t letting up! The puck bounced all the way back up to the point where Daniel Kuster was waiting.

He sees Cal on the other side of the zone and sends a beauty of a pass under a stick and between the legs of Jack Wilson. Cal one-times it…!
