Before a challenging series of matches (Angers away, Rouen at home, Amiens away), the Eagles could not afford to miss the victory when hosting Strasbourg, one of the relegated teams.
And that’s exactly what happened! They won the match 5-1.
Nice secured the win at a distance, with a 3-0 scoreline in the third period, following a goalless first period and a slight lead (2-1) in the second period, after the Alsatians opened the scoring.
R Carpentier and P Bjaloncik (second period), F Bergerons x2 and J Perttila (third period) were the scorers for Nice.
Nice is currently in 7th place in the standings with 41 points.
