– A Bernese 6-1 victory against the ZSC

The SC Bern survived the ZSC attack vortex unscathed and then started against desolate Zurichers to the gala.

An ice hockey game consists of three thirds, but the SCB – ZSC from Saturday evening can easily be divided into two halves for once. First the rather short part with the dominant people from Zurich and then the one when only the Bernese play and, in contrast to the ZSC, prove efficiency in the end. In between an intermezzo: The ZSC Lions in self-destruction mode, they give presents to the SCB and especially Tristan Scherwey.

The SCB aggressive leader scores 1-0 and 2-0, both goals fall according to the same pattern: Scherwey intercepts Zurich’s build-up passes in the ZSC zone. First, Maxim Noreau fails, then Garrett Roe. These goals completely change the game. The SCB builds up a lot of self-confidence, dares to play more and more, more and more succeeds, it suddenly becomes a gala: The Bernese lead 4-0 after two thirds.

That’s it already, the Zurich reaction in the final third does not materialize. There is a shot from the post by Sven Andrighetto, he also «shortens» 105 seconds before the end to 1: 6 – there is not much more. The SCB goalie Philip Wüthrich, who played strongly throughout the game, only missed his second shutout in the National League by a hair’s breadth.

Four assists for Dominik Kahun

In the end, it is the Bern highlight of an SCB season that has so far been poor in highlights. The Bernese appear especially in the middle third with the earlier, long-forgotten self-image of the top team. Even risky things with the puck suddenly work. And the ZSC? Also changed in one fell swoop after the dropouts: faulty, losing nerve, only reacting, desolate.

How can such a well-equipped team that apart from the long-term injured Simon Bodenmann appear in the best cast, simply fall apart? The beginning is good, with energetic fore-checking, the people of Zurich are doing exactly what the SCB has been least fond of for practically the whole season. There is hardly any build-up of the game in Bern, the SCB is content to chip the puck up in rows from the third. Often that ends in icing, it’s unsightly.

When Cory Conacher gave a Bern solo chance after ten minutes, it came out of nowhere. Five minutes later, after Noreau’s dropout, the 1-0 falls, it’s already the downfall of Zurich, now the longer the game, the more only Bern is playing.

At the SCB gala, a Berner stands out alongside the two-goal scorers Scherwey and Christian Thomas, especially Dominik Kahun: The German, who was still banned in the 3-2 win in Rapperswil-Jona the evening before, collects four assist points.
