Ice hockey: Magnus League – Magnus League: 40th day: Chamonix vs Anglet – The Pioneers keep smiling

No time to lose for the locals, their first opportunity is a hit! Durand throws to the cage, the puck is pushed back, but it comes back into Terrier’s palette which opens the scoring, 1-0 at 0’55.

Cerny could have doubled the bet a few seconds later thanks to a perfect transmission in the slot, where he was very lonely.
3 minutes into the game, Decock offered the first opportunity to Hormadi on a distant shot, which did not have the expected success.
In powerplay, Salonen overflows to open a shooting window, the goalkeeper, Florian Hardy is attentive, and the locals will not have an additional opportunity.
The penalty switches sides, but the power play remains just as fruitless for the visitors.
The Chamoniards regain control, Szabo overflows on the left side, passes the puck in the axis for Mesikammen who arrives launched and shoots Hardy, 2-0 at 12’22.

Harjula tries to take back a puck poorly controlled by the defense to try the double break.
The locals are redoubling their efforts to make more of a difference and show a conquering face. They have control over this first third and logically lead to the break.

Serenity pays

The Pioneers resume the game in numerical superiority, the opportunities follow one another without being concretized. While Anglet was full, Arrossamena went back to the prison bench, giving the locals another chance, who failed to take advantage of the offering.
The Chamoniards insist in the offensive zone, the visitors are undisciplined and offer a double superiority to their opponents, who this time feast to dig the advantage, Terrier allows himself a double, 3-0 at 29’09 [5-3].

The Angloys in difficulty find no solution and are struggling to create actions that could allow them to turn the situation around.
Cerny has the open cage but Hardy makes a save on his line by diving to close his nets.
A powerplay allows Anglet to find the offensive zone which they rarely frequent in this part. Too undisciplined, the visitors leave the Pioneers serene, take off in this second period.

The damage is done

Twice Sweeney came close to reducing the score as his team was down and the hosts failed to get into the attacking zone.
The return to 5 will be short-lived, the English penalties follow one another again. Harjula stumbles twice on Hardy, just like Cerny who definitely does not succeed in concretizing his beautiful actions.

A penalty often hides another in the English camp. Silfver hits the studs.
Decock and Mesikammen add spice to this meeting by leaving the gloves! The latter will return to prison, the Chamonix player not failing to harangue the crowd before leaving.
The game is always more fluid on the side of the Haute-Savoie troops, however fatigue is felt and they are further back than in the first thirds.
Sabol doesn’t have much to do in this game but does what it takes late in the game to keep his clean sheet, including winning against Vasilev.
The locals finish in inferiority and fail to remain solid enough defensively. Makela goes behind the net and lifts the puck on his palette to place it under the bar of Sabol, who cannot keep his shutout, 3-1 at 59:20 [5-4].

The Pioneers win logically and without much fear, 3 goals to 1.
Too undisciplined, Anglet did not know how to apply the right tactics to take back the Chamonix who continued their series of invincibility, and increased the counter to 6 victories in a row.
Serene, they nevertheless paid the luxury of not really taking advantage of their numerous numerical superiorities. Next meeting for Anglet, tonight against Mulhouse, another direct opponent. While Chamonix will face Cergy on Friday.
