Milan \u2013 The Milano Hockey Club suffered a narrow 2-3 home loss to EC-KAC Klagenfurt in the ICE Hockey League on Friday night. Two power-play goals by Grant weren\u2019t enough for Milan. In addition, goaltender Smith was injured and had to leave the ice on a stretcher.<\/p>\n

Head Coach Shedden expressed concern for his goalie after the game. The most important thing, he said, was that Smith was okay and could make the trip to the next game in Ljubljana. Regarding his team\u2019s performance, he said they need to win games like this. With the score tied 1\u20131 after 40 minutes, they need to find a way to decide the game. Their five-on-five play needs to improve drastically.<\/p>\n

The visitors from Klagenfurt, who were missing seven players, took the lead in the first period on a goal by Obersteiner in the ninth minute. Milano, with Eric Houde returning after several weeks off, struggled to break through the Carinthians\u2019 defense.<\/p>\n

In the second period, the home team turned up the pressure and created several scoring chances, including a shot by McKegg that hit the post. In the 39th minute, Milano capitalized on a power play to tie the game. Grant scored with a shot just under the crossbar to make it 1-1, and the teams headed into the second intermission with the score tied.<\/p>\n

Shortly afterward, play was halted for an extended period after Milan\u2019s goaltender, Smith, was struck in the neck by a puck and had to be carried off the ice on a stretcher. Berti took his place in goal.<\/p>\n

Immediately after play resumed, Hudson extended the KAC\u2019s lead to 3\u20131 (48th minute). Milano, however, refused to give up and closed the gap to 2\u20133 in the 52nd minute with Grant\u2019s second power-play goal. Despite their best efforts in the closing minutes, the Milan team was unable to tie the game.<\/p>\n
