In the ICE win2day Hockey League, the scramble for the playoff places continues. What remains particularly exciting is the fight for places seven to ten, which leads to the pre-playoff, in which the last two tickets for the quarter-finals are awarded. Here, the weakened Vienna Capitals suffered a setback on Friday with a 2:3 overtime home defeat against the Black Wings Linz, as did Villacher SV with a 2:3 at home against the KAC. Fehervar (4:2 against Innsbruck) is still seventh, Linz has pushed the Caps from eighth to ninth place, Budapest (5:4 against the Pioneers) is now tenth ahead of Villach.
