Gratifying confirmation: EHC Olten can win despite seven injured starters
EHC Olten is not penalized for poor efficiency in the end and wins 4:1 at the penultimate table Winterthur. It’s proof that power mice can still win despite seven injuries.

In the ranks of EHC Olten, the relief after Saturday night’s game after the last two defeats was noticeably great. The Oltners had just proved in the previous two hours that they could survive without many team leaders and even make a dominant and winning game. Sure, the mighty mice made an appearance in Winterthur, but given the current personnel situation, an away win against the penultimate table is far from a given. Especially since Winterthur, at a solid level, hadn’t lost a game for more than two goals for six weeks. EHCO concluded this series impressively with a 4:1 victory. “For me it’s always how you win or lose a game. We hadn’t played hockey in the last two games. We did it again, the attitude of how the team wanted this win was right,” he said satisfied coach Lars Leuenberger.
