47
21:39
The disc is also online this time! Omark hits from a tight angle after receiving a pass from Hartikainen. But Davos accepts the Coaches Challenge. Goalie disability is complained about.
47
21:37
Vatanen with the long-range shot, Rod trying to rate the rebound.
46
21:37
Small street (2 minutes) for Enzo Corvi (HC Davos)
Enzo Corvi has to go to the penalty box. And that is very relevant in the past performances.
46
21:35
Ambühl fights back the puck near the opponent’s goal and hits the side netting.
45
21:34
Pouliot casually deflects Le Coultre’s shot at the post – Aeschlimann is on his guard.
44
21:32
Geneva-Servette can install himself in the opponent’s third – Stransky intervenes actively in the game without a disc and can just throw Geneva out of rhythm with fair means in the attack vortex.
42
21:32
It starts right away in the first situations of the 3rd third. Both teams are attacking.
41
21:31
Beginning of 3rd third
The 3rd third begins.
40
21:15
interim conclusion
It turns out that with six foreigners, the power plays and four-on-four situations are likely to become even more decisive, as the difference in quality between the power play and box play players is likely to tilt even more in favor of the attackers. HC Davos was also able to succeed with his National League debutant Leon Bristedt in their only majority game so far. Before the end of the third, the young Simon Knak even managed to equalize for the second part of the middle third, when the Graubünden team turned up the heat.
40
21:12
interim conclusion
In the middle of the game, Geneva-Servette looked superior and could have been more than 2-0 ahead. Teemu Hartikainen had contributed his debut National League goal in the power play on the pass of his longtime friend and companion Linus Omark.
40
21:11
End of 2nd third
The 2nd third is through. Geneva-Servette – Davos 2:2.
40
21:10
Leon Bristedt is often involved in discussions with the referees. The Swede is also committed in this respect on his national league debut.
39
21:06
Good fast transition from Davos – Nordstrom for Corvi and he serves Ambühl directly with precision. Geneva-Servette was lucky that it didn’t get in before the end of the third.
36
21:04
Goal for HC Davos, 2:2 by Simon Knak
Something out of nowhere equalizes Davos! The 20-year-old Simon KNAK had aimed for a not so good finish from a similar position on the half-left – he was better. Still slightly distracted by Gauthier, the disc lands in the top right corner.
35
20:59
The reverse combo of Hartikainen on Omark doesn’t seem to work as well. Hartikainen has less fine hands and does not serve his friend in front of the opponent’s housing with 100% precision and with a little too little sharpness.
34
20:58
Mistakes in the build-up of the game at Davos – Pouliot, however, cannot overcome Aeschlimann, who is laying across the ice. Another good save from the Davos keeper, who keeps his team in the game.
33
20:57
On the other side, Praplan Jung dances out and sees his finish well parried by Aeschlimann.
32
20:56
Knak comes alone in front of the Geneva goal on the counterattack via half left, but aims a little too centrally.
31
20:54
Goal for HC Davos, 2:1 by Leon Bristedt
And also the HCD scores in the power play! 100% power play rate! After a quick cross pass from Nygren, Leon BRISTEDT can also put himself on the top scorers list for the first time.
30
20:52
With the Davosers, the power play looks a bit more hand-knit, but still with a lot of tension. Nordstrom pushes the puck past the goal after a direct pass from Corvi.
29
20:51
Small road (2 minutes) for Marc-Antoine Pouliot (Geneva-Servette)
For the first time a penalty against a Geneva. Pouliot has to go out because of a beating with a cane.
29
20:49
Marc Wieser hits Backhand on a Davos counter-move on the left post past the disc. This while the home fans are already singing the Geneva anthem again. Things are looking up for their men.
28
20:46
Antonietti picks up the disc halfway to the right in front of the Davos goal and has a clear shot. The Vaudois doesn’t hit the target well and it flies fluttering onto Aeschlimann’s chest.
26
20:46
Nordstrom now times with a relief conclusion for the HCD.
25
20:44
Geneva-Servette pushes on. Overall, the home team clearly recorded more deals. In terms of chances, Geneva-Servette was better in the first third, now they are superior to the rest of the field.
23
20:42
Goal for Geneva-Servette, 2-0 by Teemu Hartikainen
This time, the people of Geneva can therefore use the majority. Again, LInus Omark served up his first longtime friend Teemu HARTIKAINEN perfectly and the latter scored his National League goal. It all happens too quickly for the people of Davos.
23
20:41
This time, the people of Geneva are better occupied in the power play and dominate the four players from Davos, coming to multiple conclusions in seconds.
22
20:39
Small road (2 minutes) for Dominik Egli (HC Davos)
Dominik Egli has to go to the penalty box for the second time because of a cross check. Geneva-Servette tries for the second time outnumbered.
21
20:38
Beginning of 2nd third
The second third begins in Geneva.

20:24
interim conclusion
20
20:24
interim conclusion
Instead, Geneva-Servette plays a four-on-four situation with class and takes the lead through Henrik Tömmernes, who equalized his goals against HCD from last season after just 16 minutes of the new season.
20
20:21
interim conclusion
For long stretches, the Champions Hockey League is already doing the game in the rhythm of Davos in the first 20 minutes. Best chances, among others by Enzo Corvi or Matej Stransky, cannot be used.
20
20:20
End of 1st third
The first third is over! Geneva Servette – Davos 1:0.
18
20:17
Geneva-Servette now on the trigger and tries to follow up immediately.
16
20:13
Goal for Geneva-Servette, 1-0 by Henrik Tömmernes
Geneva-Servette opens the score at four against four. The Genevans play it through the middle. Winnik releases the previously mentioned TÖMMERNES and Nygren deflects the Swede’s disc into his own case as he falls.
fifteen.
20:11
Small road (2 minutes) for Benjamin Antonietti (Geneva-Servette)
Therefore, both are sent to the penalty box to ”cool off”. Four against four and thus ”open ice”.
fifteen.
20:11
Small road (2 minutes) for Simon Knak (HC Davos)
Disputes between Simon Knak and Benjamin Antonietti.
fifteen.
20:09
Davos bravely disrupted with a ”high pressing” with four men in the opposing third. This gives Jooris space to counter, but he doesn’t finish either.
14
20:08
Unsurprisingly, Geneva-Servette resorts to counterattacking – Nygren blocks a shot from Praplan roaring through the middle.
13.
20:05
11.
20:05
Vatanen shoots from the blue line – Aeschlimann defends with the schooner to the side.
10
20:03
The game bounces up and down. It rhymes and reflects what is happening on the ice. Dirt is left a bit too much space by Völlmin. But it remains goalless.
9.
20:00
Now also Geneva-Servette with a first good chance – Omark serves Hartikainen, but he fails. The Swede and the Finn have played together for many years in their careers at various stations in North America and Russia – and are now reunited.
7.
20:00
Nordstrom is also immediately needed defensively and helps to prevent the potentially dangerous Geneva counterattack via Filppula.
6.
19:58
Biggest chance of the party so far! Ambühl with a backhand treat behind the opponent’s housing on Nordstrom, who serves the completely free-standing Cofvi. This should actually open the score completely free-standing in an ideal position half-right, but fails somewhat nonchalantly at Gauthier.
5.
19:57
Stransky wants to succeed in the slot from close range, but just doesn’t get to the target.
4.
19:55
The road is through and Davos is putting pressure on right away. But doesn’t come to an end.
4.
19:53
Hartikainen comes integrated to a deflector in the pwoerplay when Tömmernes shoots. Geneva-Servette is in the majority, but not really getting going.
2.
19:52
Small road (2 minutes) for Dominik Egli (HC Davos)
First two-minute penalty against Dominik Egli for holding the stick.

preview
Last year’s semi-finalists Davos (clear 0:4 against champions Zug) resisted the start from the east at the very western end of Switzerland. Geneva-Servette certainly wants to perform better this season than the pre-playoffs of 2022.
