Vor Duell gegen Krefeld: Ärgern die Überflieger der Blue Devils erneut einen Favoriten?

Die Blue Devils treffen in der DEL2 ein letztes Mal auf die Krefeld Pinguine. Dass man mit dem Starensemble mithalten kann, hat man im Saisonverlauf bewiesen. Ein Spieler kehrt in den Kader zurück, bei einem anderen gibt es Entwarnung.

Es war mitunter das Highlight der Saison: Der 1:0-Heimsieg der Blue Devils gegen den Aufstiegsaspiranten aus Krefeld. Am Freitag müssen die Weidener auswärts gegen den Tabellenzweiten ran.
