HC Davos U21 took a 4-2 decision at SCL Young Tigers U21, settled in regulation and effectively settled in the middle period. A three-goal second frame turned an even game into a two-score cushion Davos never surrendered.
The teams traded goals in the opening period and went to the first intermission at 1-1. Davos then scored three unanswered in the second to lead 4-1, and the Young Tigers' lone third-period goal only trimmed it to 2-4.
The number that frames the night is the second period: 3-0 Davos, the only frame either side won by more than a goal. The Young Tigers matched Davos 1-1 and 1-0 in the other two periods but could not recover the twenty minutes in between.
