Kloten lose to Servette

Kloten lose to Servette

After tonight's loss, the Flyers now have a 9 point deficit to 8th placed EHC Biel.

 
 
 
 

With Geneva in town, the Flyers took a new attempt to collect 3 points. But the start was, once again, a bad one and just 30 seconds into the game Kloten took a penalty which Servette used to score their first goal of the game at 2 minutes played. Frédéric Iglesias (no he's not Enrique's Brother) scored on an assist by Matthew Lombardi and Kevin Romy. The rest of the period both teams played a rather slow game with little chances on either side which wasn't very pleasant for the fans to watch.

Second period and this time goalie Müller only neede 59 seconds to grab the puck from behind him as Taylor Pyatt scored the 2nd goal, assisted by his brother Tom and Daniel Rubin. In the middle period, the shots were split almost equally with Kloten firing 10 shots on goalie Bays while Müller was tested 9 times.

Finally, after 4 minutes of play in the final period, Simon Bodenmann succeeded on a pass by youngster Denis Hollenstein but the effort that had to be put into that goal seemed enormous. The home team wasn't able to mobilize any further power, Coach Sean Simpson removed his goalie for the last minute but other than a shot on goal was all the Flyers had left.

Cyrill Bühler who returned from an injury wasn't very happy with his comeback. "We have two choices. Give up, or fight. There's 12 games left and it won't be easy." EHC Biel who hold the 8th and final playoff spot are now 9 points ahead of the Flyers. Theoretically everything is possible but the attitude the team has shown in the past games predicts a tough trip if the Flyers want to make the play-offs. Coach Sean Simpson was sparing with words when asked about tonight's game, repeating the comments of the previous interviews, that his team hadn't played bad but didn't win the game, that the only thing his team could do is to continue working hard.
