Already seven scorers

Salzburg’s “cowboy” delivers on the assembly line

Ice bull Troy Bourke has scored in all four ice hockey league games this season and already has seven points. After three victories at the Volksgarten, the Bulls are looking to celebrate their first away win today at the Pioneers Vorarlberg in Ländle.

A lack of consistency caused the Bulls some problems against Pustertal. However, four goals from minute 51 onwards secured a 7:3 victory and their third home win in a row. Troy Bourke continued his assembly line work: The "Cowboy" extended his scoring run in the fourth game of the season with a goal and two assists, and now has seven points. Only KAC newcomer From is better with eight, but he has already played six games.

Ahead of their Champions Hockey League appearance on Tuesday at the Växjö Lakers (Sd), the Eisbullen, who traveled to the Ländle yesterday, are hunting their first league away win today against the Pioneers Vorarlberg. "Hopefully we have enough in our legs to put up a great fight," explained coach Oliver David after the Pustertal game, which was postponed by one day due to the Bulls' Premier League appearance on Tuesday.

Niki Kraus rejected the idea of playing down from the outset: "Wherever we play, we want to dominate the game. That's out of the question."
