les Boxers de Bordeaux déroulent face à Briançon
This victory quickly took shape with a price of power after just over three minutes of play thanks to an achievement by Legault: “We wanted to start the return phase, we congratulate coach Olivier Dimet. We did what was necessary tonight, especially during the first two periods with very effective power plays. »
A trend which is confirmed with a domination of Bordeaux which presses very hard the opposing rearguard. A paying tactic for Boxers who doubled the bet on a goal from Poudrier, well served by a Colotti already author of two assists in seven minutes of play. Not enough to satisfy Olivier Dimet’s men who had lacked realism last Friday against in Gap, despite a good overall performance. There, no doubt, the battering hurt Briançon who cracked again just before the end of the first period thanks to Salo.
Everything in control
The comfortable lead will increase on the return to the ice with a goal from Carrozza (22nd). Suffice to say that this match already seems folded. And it is not the reduction in the score of Briançon (27th) that thwarts Bordeaux’s plans. Moreover, vexed by this failed bleaching, the Boxers camped as soon as the recovery in front of the goal of the Red Devils. Intense pressure, a confiscated puck that puts Briançon to death. The red lantern logically gives way at the end of the second period on the achievements of Jevpalovs (37th) then Warner (39th) which gives even more scope to the unchallenged domination of the Girondins.
“Some were in doubt at the offensive level. But we were able to exercise a large possession of the puck in the offensive zone in the second period, holding the coach back. Afterwards, unconsciously, we may have relaxed over the last twenty minutes. But I don’t blame the players. »
