It was particularly painful for the SCL Tigers: Joshua Fahrni scored a regulation goal in the 5th minute before Wrzenilek's record goal. However, Langnau's avoidable first goal was disallowed due to the referee interrupting play (prematurely). Tim Wolf once again came on for the injured Leonardo Genoni to celebrate his first shutout in a Zug jersey.

Geneva – Davos 1:3

In Geneva, the goalkeeper is the focus. Servetus was forced to change goalkeepers at the start of the second period after Davos defender Klaas Dalbek collided with Robert Meier at full force. 18-year-old Geneva native Nassim Jaafri-Hayani replaced the injured Mayer. Just a minute after he was substituted, he had to admit for the first time that he was beaten. Valentin Nussbauer scored for HCD to make it 1-0.
