Ice Hockey / Magnus League. Shipwreck for Gap, the nice shot of Grenoble, Briançon overthrown in Amiens
A real shipwreck for the birds of prey
Having arrived as leaders in Anglet, the Gapençais left the shores of the Atlantic, spanked (5-1), and stopped dead in their progress. Leaders after five games, did the Raptors think that it was enough for them to climb onto the cramped ice of the Hormadi to glean a fifth victory, in order to regain the leadership of the Magnus alone?
Dominated from the first to the last minute in the field of shots (53/30), in the engagement, Gutierrez’s partners remained inside for the first time this season. Penultimate in the hierarchy before the meeting, last attack in the championship, Anglet put the church back in the middle of the ice, showing a real offensive potential.
With three points each, Oskar Batna and Kevin Massy led the offensive revolt to bend Junca, replaced during the last third by Darier, after conceding two goals in thirty seconds, which destroyed the last hopes of the Raptors. If we knew that Gap would not win all these matches, the training of Eric Blais had shown so far a great sense of combat.
With two more goals conceded in a shorthand, the Raptors pointed out the work still to be done to apply for a place in the top 8 invited to the play-off. From Tuesday against Nice, Gap will have to recover, hoping for the return of Chad Langlais who is starting to really make itself felt …

A second fatal period in Briançon
Ahead after 20 minutes, the Red Devils let the meeting slip through their claws in the second period to lose this Friday night in Amiens with a score of 3 to 1. The first three Picard power play got the better of Daniel Sedlak’s men .
If the start of the match was Amiénoise, the first Briançonnais throw on Buysse after six minutes sounded the revolt of the Devils. The high-alpine highlight that followed was immediately converted by Huna, the Briançonnais top scorer is once again in the right place to win victoriously a puck released by the Picard goalkeeper following a throw from Schmitt (0-1 , 7’41). Passed ahead, Briançon continued to corner the Picards in their defensive zone for long minutes before suffering again at the very end of the period, without the too complicated knitting of the Picards finding any reward.
The domination of the Goths was further accentuated at the start of the second period. Faster, more physical, allowing themselves the majority of the duels, the Gothics took advantage of three numerical superiorities to string three pearls. It was first Romand, well offset by Pearce, who put the Picards back in the saddle (1-1, 24’03) before the very young Simonsen, on a throw on reception, gave the advantage to the locals ( 2-1, 26’53). Briançon believed to pick up again by Igier, but the goal invalidated for a high-Alpine surplus, offered a third numerical superiority in a row to the Picardy. This, like the two previous ones, was quickly converted by Lapachuk, the Amiens taking back a rebound left by Richard against a wide open net (3-1, 35’18).
The intensity of the game waned in the third period, and although the Goths continued to control the game, the Devils had the opportunity to come back on several occasions. The duel recovered as the end of the match approached, when the Devils were offered a double power-play advantage of nearly 1’30. The siege of the goal of Buysse did not finally give anything despite a shower of chances, the Picards clinching a logical victory by the score of 3 to 1.
The Briançonnais must quickly digest this meeting since they will host the Grenoble wolf burners, from this Sunday, October 10-Froger (4 p.m.).
Almost Perfect Wolf Burners
The defeat in Angers (4-1) no longer seems a distant memory for Grenoble. Yesterday, the Brûleurs de loups compiled a fourth success in five days at the expense of Cergy-Pontoise. A near flawless that the players of Jyrki Aho won with a mastery over no longer promising.
What allow them to invite themselves to the top of the ranking.
