EHC Visp made it to the semi-finals of the Swiss League playoffs for the first time since the last B title in 2014. This is good news for everyone who consistently works to ensure that the promotion/relegation process is as complete as possible. Or rather: hope so. Only National League chiefs would argue for this, but what they think about a pure promotion/relegation process has long been known: distance.
A recipe for protective cement has been found.
People stopped waiting for Wisp a long time ago, and in the fall they even wondered if this lost bunch was still a candidate for the playoffs. For a long time in the Upper Valais even Heinz Ehlers, a man of all trades, could not find the recipe for the pure mixed concrete with which he had already cemented his defensive bastions in Biel, Langenthal, Lausanne, Langnau and Denmark. .
The Valesian says: “We are running”
Wisp in the semi-finals also means: Fear is spreading in the bowels of the National League. When Mörtel-Heinz starts producing 57 variations of gaming systems, anything seems possible. A Valais resident who met the author at Zurich’s Stadelhofen station on Wednesday, February 28, summed it up this way: “Now we’re passing.”
God. If they do succeed, all the safety nets that are supposed to protect even errant clubs in this country from the logical sporting consequences (relegation) of a completely failed season could be torn apart. Wisp and Olten, the only remaining Swiss league clubs with a promotion license, are making sure fear spreads in Kloten and Ajoie, and that’s a good thing. With their votes, they also abandoned the promotion/relegation regime, which was designed to be as simple as possible. Let them tremble a little before Heinz.
