KAC crushes Rouen x:x in the season opener
A strong start for ice hockey runners-up KAC in the Champions Hockey League! A clear 4:2 victory at French champ Rouen. Klagenfurt put the home side under pressure time and again. The strong first line around Hundertpfund initiated the victory with two early goals - only in the final third did they falter a little.
A perfect start for the Red Jackets! Three years ago, they had already celebrated a 4:0 victory in Rouen - this time, the Furey squad celebrated an x:x away from home at the start of the Champions Hockey League. The visitors started like a fire department early on, kept up the pressure - and were rewarded for it. After four minutes, Fraser netted after a one-two with Hundertpfund - later Petersen increased the lead, scoring after a Hundertpfund solo (11th).
Two strong periods were enough for victory
In the middle third, Peeters increased the lead in the power play (27'), immediately after which the French team briefly gave hope with the score at 1:3. But just twelve seconds later, KAC ace Bischofberger scored to make it 1:4.
The French then had more of the play in the final third and became really dangerous for the first time. Especially after Simonsen made it 2:4 (44'), Klagenfurt found themselves in trouble twice while short-handed - but with a spirited defensive performance, they managed to hold on for the opening win.
The Red Jackets continue their campaign on Sunday in Sweden at Färjestad.
