As long as there is life, there is hope, says the saying. This is what happened at the Chamonix ice rink where the locals secured victory in the last-chance match.
It wasn’t the team from Nice, already mentally on vacation, who could stand up to the Savoyards. Indeed, that wasn’t the case: final score 5-3 for the locals.
Nice finished the season in 10th place, having missed playoff qualification on goal average (tied on points with Mulhouse).
