Big day today in the OYM hall! All match-goers are asked to be in their seats at 7.30 pm. The new EVZ logo will be presented during a small ceremony hosted by Thomy Jeker. The anticipation is great.

But the performance on the ice is just as important. The next points should come tonight against HC Ambrì-Piotta. If you look at the form curve of the two teams, EVZ fans can be confident. After a solid performance against Fribourg on Tuesday, which resulted in a 3-1 defeat, they managed to respond on Friday. Although the Zug team fell behind twice, they ultimately won 3:2 against Biel in the Tissot Arena. Mike Künzle scored the all-important decisive goal in the 54th minute.

Ambrì, on the other hand, suffered a clear 2:5 defeat against qualifying winners Davos on Friday and are condemned to score points if they don’t want to contest the playout series against HC Ajoie. However, EVZ will be focussing on themselves and aiming for a home win. If they succeed, coach Benoît Groulx’s team should at least be almost certain of making the pre-playoffs.
