Adler Mannheim celebrates a 4-0 win against Bremerhaven for Advent!

The Adler Mannheim showed their strength for the first Advent and defeated the Fischtown Pinguins 4-0. This was an important win that not only gives the Eagles a good feeling, but also sets the stage for the upcoming playoffs. When head coach Dallas Eakins arrived with his team, the game in Bremerhaven was eagerly awaiting a clear success.

Tom Kühnhackl scored in the second minute after accepting a precise cross pass from Kristian Reichel. The Eagles controlled the game, but the first chances belonged to the Penguins. However, Alex Friesen and Max Görtz failed due to the excellent goalkeeper Maxi Franzreb, who celebrated his second shutout of the season.

A prime example of teamwork

The 2-0 was made in the 10th minute by Zach Solow, who was successful in the follow-up shot. Although the Penguins had the majority and Reichel had a great chance to make it 2-0, Julius Hudacek stayed strong and thwarted this opportunity. The Eagles also remained in control in the second third: Ehl made it 3-0 from the slot in the 35th minute. The Penguins defense had its hands full while the Eagles created numerous chances. Matthew Abt even hit the post before Renouf made it 4-0 when he was outnumbered in the 57th minute.

The Adler Mannheim are in seventh place in the table with 76 points and have to go into the first round of the playoffs. Compared to the Pinguins, who recently took the lead with a 4-0 win against Augsburg, the Adler are under pressure. The statistics show that the Eagles are also very popular in the running categories in this main round, but only take 11th place in the power play with 24 goals from 148 situations.
