The strong Bieler line with Damien Brunner, Luca Cunti and Mike Künzle is only half a game complete after Cunti’s comeback. In the second final game against Servette, Künzle no longer plays after a collision with Alessio Bertaggia from Geneva.

That’s what happened: in the corner of the Geneva zone, Künzle stabbed the puck. Bertaggia wants to stop him, turns at the last moment. The head of the EHCB striker hits Bertaggia’s back. Künzle, who wears a full visor, has a wound on his forehead and needs stitches. The 29-year-old returns to the team bench, but will no longer be available. Also because Ramon Tanner is doing well in his place. In addition, Künzle’s wound must be dabbed again and again.

Biel striker Damien Brunner decided the second final game with his goal 7.4 seconds before the end of the third period.

The fact that Bertaggia was not fined by the referee for this batch is a point of discussion. Referee expert Tobias Wehrli stated in the MySports studio that this was just “a stupid collision” and therefore went unpunished. But: There should have been a two-minute penalty for obstruction. The decisive factor is that Bertaggia jumps up before the collision.

Bertaggia says of the scene, “It was in the corner, it happened so fast. I knew he was there. But it was more of a hit-and-run. Still, you don’t want to hurt anyone like that. I hope it’s nothing serious.”
