Polar bears win
Zeller Eisbären get the season off to a good start
The Zell Ice Bears celebrated a home win against the Unterland Cavaliers on the first matchday of the new Alps Hockey season. This also marked the competitive debut of coach Marcel Rodman - and the anniversary of Philipp Putnik.
Start, debut, anniversary - the Zell Polar Bears achieved all of these on Saturday evening. The team from Pinzgau celebrated a 3:1 win against the Unterland Cavaliers in their first game of the Alps Hockey League season. It was also coach Marcel Rodman's first competitive game on the Zeller bench. Two debutants were responsible for the first two goals. New signing Matt McLeod put his team ahead, Lorenz Lindner (on loan from the Black Wings Linz) extended the lead.
"It was a tough start"
"It was a tough start, we have to be better," said the defender. The final goal was scored by Philipp Putnik - in his 300th game for the traditional Pinzgau club! Also noteworthy: Max Wilfans' first game for Zell was his 350th in the Alps Hockey League.
On Sunday, the RB Juniors conclude the opening round away in Cortina. The next task for the Polar Bears awaits on Thursday at defending champions Ritten.
