EHC Kloten edged Pioneers Vorarlberg 5-4 in regulation in a Club Friendly. The decisive push came in the second period, where the hosts outscored the visitors 2-1 to take a 3-2 lead into the final frame.
The opening period ended 1-1, leaving little between the sides. Kloten’s middle-period edge proved to be the turning point, and although Vorarlberg matched them 2-2 in the third, the home team’s earlier advantage held up to secure the win.
The standout number was the second-period swing: Kloten’s 2-1 advantage there was exactly the final one-goal margin. The hosts finished with five goals across the game while conceding four, enough to win a tight, evenly contested friendly.
