Overview
- Weißwasser won 6:2 in front of a sold-out Eisarena, moving above their Saxon rival in the table.
- Dennis Shevyrin opened for Crimmitschau before Christopher Theodore equalized 29 seconds later, with John Broda and Alexander Dosch putting the Füchse in control.
- Late goals from Clarke Breitkreuz, Charlie Jahnke and Lane Scheidl secured the margin after Crimmitschau briefly cut the deficit.
- Eispiraten goalie Kevin Reich conceded six, while stand-in Lennart Neiße, deputising for injured starter Morrone, delivered key saves late.
- The victory extends Weißwasser’s buffer above the first play-down spot to eight points with 12 games left, and next up are Kaufbeuren away then Weiden at home as Eispiraten’s Louis Brune called his team’s situation critical if form does not improve.
