The Asiago back to victory and remains in command. Not just the generosity of the Fassa in the second half. The Ritten win in Milan and back to second place. The Valpellice delivers the Val Pusteria and takes fourth place. The Cortina pass on the difficult track of the Broncos Vipiteno.
Fassa - Asiago 3-5 for the second straight game on the ice Fassa friend of the "Scola". In front of the leaders Asiago is back from two consecutive defeats, the last remedied in anticipation of Tuesday against the Ritten. The Fassa is presented to complete and recover from the last turn, Soel Constantin. The Asiago waiver again to Dave Borrelli why not in perfect physical condition. Guests bring us very little to take the lead. Sean Bentivoglio realizes after only 34 seconds, confirming the vulnerability of Val di Fassa in the very early stages of the game. But the team of coach John Park insists. It's up to the last arrived among the Giallorossi, Andre Signoretti, put in the disk of 2-0 and only 2 '. The Asiago continues to run with Vallini that is put under pressure by the forward asiaghesi. It's up to Layne Ulmer achieve the third goal of the night after good work by Chris DiDomenico. Layne Ulmer who returns to the goal after a hunger strike that lasted from October 12. 3-0 Asiago slows down the pace of operations. The Fassa be seen from parts of Vincenzo Marozzi but the result does not change until the first siren. We return to play poker and Asiago square with a missile of Sean Bentivoglio, after just 18 seconds, and taking advantage of a Fassa in the first minute, as has already happened in the first half but also in other races , does not seem to be on the ice. The game seems Fassa marked but the team is young and vibrant. Henry Chelodi responds immediately all'allungo guest. The network seems to give a fair shake. With the duo Jeslinek Sindel and a bit 'on the sly, it's up to other players give their input. So Diego Iori and Martin Castlunger launch the technique of Simon Kostner which reopens definitely the race with two beautiful goals, the first with a shot at the intersection. Of note in this comeback three assists each of Diego Martin and Iori Castlunger. In just over six minutes, the Fassa located three networks and then touches the equalizer against a Asiago that seems to have closed the deal too quickly . The Fassa also plays 4 'of superiority but the Venetians do not yield. Rather roles reversed, just five seconds from the siren of the second half, comes the network Layne Ulmer in powerplay that allows you to close in Asiago 5-3 lead over the first 40 '. In the third village Asiago closes ranks in defense while the action of the Fassa goes the distance after wasting a lot of energy in the second half. Even when Ladin seek the way of goals, Vincenzo Marozzi meets present. The Asiago, in turn, saves valuable energy for the next difficult commitments and closes without worry the contest, winning 5-3. Time that ends with no markings. Asiago back to win after two rounds and continues to lead the Elite A Itas Cup The Fassa could take comfort in the good second half in which the Italian players have tried to resume the Italian champions in charge.

Vipiteno - Cortina 1-5 One of the most exciting races of the day, given the state of the form of the two contenders. The Sterzing rose to fourth place after three consecutive victories. The Broncos take to the track without the contribution of Michael Catenacci is no longer a player of Sterzing. Fabian Hackhofer always absent in defense. Vipiteno recovering from the last meeting, Daniel Maffia and Michael Messner on defense. There is also the Vipiteno Kruselburger Tommy and David Gschnitzer. The Cortina is fresh from victory at home against Valpellice and in general a good form. Absent in attack Christian Menardi. Cortina which retrieves the National Youth Andre Vallazza, Ronny De Fang and Richard Lacedelli. Always absent René Baur, one of the two goalkeepers used in this season at home Ampezzo. Beginning in slow motion to the two teams who think more to break the opponent's game which to build. With every passing minute the home side took command of operations but without scratching too much from the parts of Borelli. It takes the first penalty of the meeting to break the deadlock. Luca Zandonella, approximately half of the first fraction, sits on the penalty bench. It's up to Trevor Jon Caig put Borelli, thanks to care for David Ludvik. Vipiteno who took the lead by exploiting the only penalty of the first half. The last minutes of the first half do not give other emotions with a Cortina defending itself and Vipiteno that closes the dispute without going over the goal by Caig. In the second half the Cortina rhythm changes and play a lot better than in the first half. Andrea Moser, at the opening of a fraction, signing the equalizer after a good hard work by Luca Felicetti. Then the superiority of the first game, we think Stanislav Gron realize the benefit of the Veneto. Vipiteno in a crisis that does not seem to be able to organize unadifesa adequate. Cortina and the eternal thanks Giorgio De Bettin scored the 3-1. But it is not over yet because Luca Felicetti is triggered and leads to another disk in attack important that the young Richard Lacedelli pushes the net for the first goal in the league of young Cortina. Ampezzani that close the second half with a final 4-1. The Sterzing starts with Steinmann in the door instead of classes. Even in this third fraction, the Cortina is more team Sterzing and contains the messy back of the hosts. For the formation of Clayton Beddoes there is a lot of enthusiasm. The network of Ryan Dingle puts an end to the games. Cortina winning 5-1 in Vipiteno where falls are many teams in the league. Cortina which consolidates the sixth and leading to the back of your Broncos. The home team, after this defeat, is overcome by Valpellice scale and in fifth place.

Milan - 2-4 All Ritten Renon'' Agora arrives fresh from victory at home against the league leaders Asiago, thus continuing the chase'' to the top of the table. The Milan, for its part, has earned a'' major confidence boost going to win on the field against the Fassa Canazei. Milan that occurs on the ice without Manuel Lo Presti has to give up that last. The red and blue are also the last purchase, in tryout, Devin DiDiomete, "enforcer" arrived to support the attack of Lombardy. The Ritten found the suspended Ruben Rampazzo but must give up three young Alex Tauferer, Andreas Alber and Julian Kostner over to Alex Frei, injured for a long time. Start of the race interlocutory between Milan and Renon, with two teams well covered but ready to assert its own characteristics when it comes to bringing the disc in the offensive zone and become dangerous. The Ritten argues the potential of its first line, where the first real opportunity gives the Nelson from close range, while the Milan responds quietly playing a phase of superiority procured from the first initiative of the new DiDiomete. Halfway through the first part, after a gust guest orchestrated by Siddall, rossoblu went close to the lead with two conclusions of Fontanive and Estoclet on which Mason needs to make the first leg and then the shield for deviation. The Renon took the lead on an engagement captured in the offensive zone, disc Rampazzo, shooting in traffic in front of the slot, but the rebound para Dainton get to Spinell who made no mistake 1-0 bagging the guest. A minute passes and Ansoldi before and shortly after Tudin continue to put pressure on the Milan defense that you save with Dainton protagonist. At the end of time the Milan tries again but the diagonal Goi wide ending. In the second period begins with the Renon big decision, occupying defensive third rossoblu to try doubling without success. Doubling that, however, comes in the fifth minute on a personal action of Nelson, who initially seems to lose his balance but remains in control of the situation and mockery Dainton with a hard but low surgical precision. Milan did not give up: the man earns more and halves the delay. Goi working hard on a blue, puts it in traffic that touches DiDiomete enough to put out because of Mason. The two teams will face each other openly, rossoblu free pass two inferiority and when, two minutes from the second siren, they have at their disposal the extra man on the ice build up a number of occasions with Lutz and Estoclet on which Mason overtime hours. The end of the Ritten nothing can touch close in on the stunt Fontanive that bears Milan to a 2-2 draw by blowing up the Agora. Last minute with the two contenders in 4 on 4 but almost nothing happens with the respective defenses careful. Last time that does not differ from the first two. Guests start to hurt with their first line in which Nelson and Johansson carve out the most dangerous occasions against a defense that gives Milan superiority. The "special teams" Rittner carousel by spinning the disc quickly, then get on the stick Alright, able to exploit the veil of a companion and cool Dainton with a jab of the goal. Immediately the 3-2 Milan takes a few changes to regain balance and effective game, and managed to earn a numerical superiority on which, however, fails to repeat the good things done see above. The game is angular, the gaps begin to be just the way of the network, but you save Dainton bootleg on a "face to face" all technique and speed of Spinell. The fatigue is beginning to be felt and a wrong exchange Scelfo would clear track but is off-center looking for a slap on which the goalkeeper rossoblu close properly the mirror avoiding further problems for his defense. The Ritten in defense closes ranks, defending carefully and really leaving very little scope offensive to a Milan that is trying in every way, also playing with the sixth man of the move in search of the network that would tie. After the time out of Insam rossoblu play the last minute of the game with the man advantage and without Dainton in a cage, the center Renon a pole striking distance with Ansoldi, but made no mistake when the disc arrives on cue Nelson that crown with the network of 4-2 staff and its excellent performance thus closing any speech on the final result. Ritten passing in the second position and exceeds the Val Pusteria. Milan remains in seventh place and watches her leave the Cortina.

Valpellice - Val Pusteria 5-1 Challenge of great importance in Torre Pellice for two teams who want to return to winning ways after defeats remedied in the last round. The Valpellice finds Jeff Frazee, the goalkeeper, after his experience in the American national who won the Deutschland Cup in that of Monaco of Bavaria. Valpellice also found that under the National Youth who last week were absent as Cordin, Mondon Marin, Durand Varese. Even the Val Pusteria found J.Å . Aubin who returns to defend the goal of Pustertal after playing only 34 minutes from the October 5. Brunico cheschiera the defense in full force but must give up many disqualifications between strikers and infortuni.Non are of the race because they have to serve their one-match ban Erlacher Thomas and Dennis McCauley. Absent because injured Tauber, McLeod and Oberauch. Coach Mike Busniuk forced to reshuffle the lines of attack. Starting fulmicotone the formation of the house that is immediately the opening goal with Scott Barney which finalizes action of arrogance after just 43 seconds of play. Defense pusterese that does not start in the best way. However, the reaction of the guests arrives shortly after, with a lonely action by Giulio Scandella that finds the equalizer. But tonight the Valpellice is definitely more of a team than the last two outings. Inertia of a powerplay well-run, the Bulldogs, on an equal footing numeric pass to lead with Dean Strong enough that diverts a trip Slavomir Tomko. The goal galvanizes the Piedmontese that tonight play a hockey bubbly and precise. The third goal is purely academic. Nunn closes a fast triangulation with Ihnacak and produces the third goal. Valpe on the shields and pole Maxwell. Piedmont definitely masters of the ice and the first time on 3-1 to the hosts. In the second half the Val Pusteria in training very experimental, try to recover the double disadvantage. The defense of Valpe is very careful with both men of movement that with the extreme Frazee. The race is pleasant with the home team that tries to contain a return not very convinced of gialloneri. Around the 32 'double superiority for the Wolves but the rear Piedmont is exemplary. The fourth network is severely challenged by guests because, in the opinion of Helfer and his companions, the goal of Ihnacak was made after a referee whistle. The goal is validated and before the end of time imperious descent Scott Barney proves to handle it with the disc and exceeds Aubin in direct comparison with the extreme black yellow. Valpe terminating the time on 5-1. In the third village teams give more playing time to young people and third lines as if the result had already acquired. Under these conditions, the result does not change even if they go close to scoring more guests who do not give the home side but the Wolves are under four networks. Darcy Campbell takes up to 10 'for misconduct. The race does not give many more emotions if not Bona fails to realize that a good opportunity. It ends 5-1 for Valpe who returns to victory. With this success the Piedmontese back in fourth position and bypass the Sterzing. The Val Pusteria scale in the third position exceeded by the return of Renon.
