Gap 1-2 Chamonix
In a play from their defense, Jérémie Penz crosses to the left before perfectly adjusting to Gaétan Richard. Bohdan Panasenko’s equalizer is magnificent. After recovering the puck near his goal, the 21 of the Rapaces crosses the entire ice before sending a cross-shot into the Chamonix goal. Half an hour goes by without the teams finding another way through. However, while at a numerical disadvantage, Chamonix scores in the 53rd minute with an individual effort from Matthew Tugnutt. The Pionniers thus win 2-1 against the last-placed Rapaces with a four-point deficit. Chamonix, with a six-point advantage, remains in SLM.
Anglet 2-3 Cergy-Pontoise
After a launch from their defense, Dominik Volejnicek finds himself alone in front of the goal and scores. Philéas Perrenoud equalizes midway through the match on a rebound from a shot by Ewen Jribi-Chauviere. Coming out of a face-off, Johan Frisell Salomon unleashes a powerful shot that beats Mathieu Caron. One minute later, just before the break, Matthew Philip scores a third goal for Cergy-Pontoise with a shot between the goalie’s legs. Anglet reduces the gap with a shot from the blue line by Baptiste Manciot fifteen minutes before the end. The Jokers win 3-2 and secure their place in the Synerglace Ligue Magnus!
