Part of the reason why the Puckers Luxembourg lost the game is that even though today's 4 points against are below this season's average of 5.29, the 1 points scored in this game are below the 4.57 season average. In all 2 matchups between these two teams, both won 1 times, which creates a regular season split. Next on the schedule for the Hiversport Huskies Luxembourg is the IHC Beaufort II on December 20th, whilst for the Puckers Luxembourg, the IHC Beaufort I will be next on December 10th.
