While Daniel has a short respite before entering the playoffs proper, Marcel is in full swing with Vasteras. Please find the match summary as follows.

 

4-3 (OT)

In the third match of the series (2-0 lead for the Swedes), Vasteras extended its lead by one and is at the brink of eliminating Cologne from the playoffs after a 4-3 OT win. Cologne was on the board first with an early powerplay goal. Vasteras answered with a brace from Young and a marker by Adolfsen, all in even strength. In the second period, the Express was able to pull one back with an other power play conversion. Cologne scored the equalizer halfway through the third frame. You guessed it, it was the third goal scored on a man advantage. Alas, Young with his third goal delivered the dagger after five minutes into the sudden death. For the three stars Young (3g/0a), Maellard (2g/1a) and Cat (0g/2a) were elected. The Iron Eagles' netminder Jute (.906) had the tiniest of margins over his opponent Freeze (.905) in Cologne's net. Vasteras' special teams displayed a shockingly poor efficiency with 0/4 for the power play and 2/5 for the penalty killing. The GM Arce is well advised to address this issue as soon as possible.

Marcel left the ice with a 0g, 1a, +3 and 4sb record

 

His stats for the post-season so far:

3gp, 0g, 2a, +4, 0 PIM, 4 hits and 9sb

 

As demonstrated in this game, Marcel does well to stay out of the sin bin, in order to not provoke 'easy' goals against his team.

 

We will revert tomorrow, when Daniel will get into the thick of it as well against the DC Dragons.
