An ice hockey fairy tale

HC Bolzano has written an ice hockey fairy tale this year. Almost until half of the season, the 19-time Italian champion was in the last place in the multinational championship EBEL. Then began an incredible catch-up. In the playoffs, the white-reds outgrew themselves...

EBEL Champion

First, HCB beat Austria's record champion Klagenfurt AC. In the semifinals, the champion and regular season winner Vienna Capitals was eliminated and in the final, the HCB even managed against the Red Bulls Salzburg the unbelievable: after seven games stood with the HC Bolzano a historic EBEL champion.
Never in the history of the EBEL had the eighth in the league won the title.

HCB Milestones

HC Bolzano has been able to celebrate many great successes in the past: 19 Italian Championship titles, 3 Cup victories, 4 Supercup victories, Champions of the Alpine League in 1994 and winner of the Six Nations Tournament (with former NHL superstar Jaromir Jagr). In addition, the HCB already won the championship title in 2014 during its first EBEL participation as the first foreign club ever.
