Berlin - Ivan Čiernik runs to the center line alone again Berliner Tor, Mirko Ludemann is entirely free from the shortest distance as well as a chance for him Todd Warriner and Bryan Adams - but it does not take all.
These are just a few of sooo many opportunities that the Sharks missed the top match in Berlin. The result: a 2:3 bitter and totally unnecessary-bankrupt when league leaders.
Sharks couch Doug Mason was criticized after the Sunday game in Frankfurt, the lack of effort on the defensive. It did not have much, even the Berlin strikers will be left far too much space. Result: Even in the first minute of the puck behind proposing a goalkeeper Robert Mueller.
The sharks, although even then continue to show the direction of polar bears urge gate, but the back's ringing again, it is 0:3 after the first third. Front pitch, and inability to meet each other, back on the other hand, every shot a booth. Sharks manager Rodion Pauels sour: "The first third, we have to oversleep Berlin was hot, we only lukewarm."
Rear much better sorted to present the sharks in the middle third. Also Robert Mueller is now a safer backing, especially with the schooner, he repeatedly parried strongly. Front, however, the same picture. Again, countless opportunities - but more than the following responses by Daniel Rudslätt will not fall. In the final third of even hope. Sebastian Furchner reduced to 2:3.
The sharks move up a gear to overrun the increasingly tired polar bears. But time is running out. Mason takes 45 seconds before closing out his keeper for a sixth outfield. Dave McLlwain again freely with the giant chance to equalize, but fits the game well he grimaced.
Because of the stupid mistakes from the first third of the total and miserable with no chance of recovery points to leave the sharks probably the last time the historical Sportforum Hohenschönhausen. The next year the polar bears play in the new O2 Arena.
