Following an action-packed first week of Champions Hockey League action, Europe's elite club ice hockey competition returns for a second week of games in which we will see teams battle for more points for the Regular Season Standings - here's what's coming up!
We'll have seven games to look forward to on Thursday. Starting us off is a mouth-watering clash between reigning CHL Champions Tappara Tampere and Adler Mannheim who are yet to drop points this season at 17:30 CEST.
Dynamo Pardubice will welcome the Stavanger Oilers to Czechia at 18:00 CEST for the Norwegian team's first away game of 2023/24, while Skellefteå AIK will line up against the Rouen Dragons of France at 19:00 CEST.
HC Innsbruck will play only their second-ever CHL game against the Belfast Giants at 19:30 CEST. The team from Northern Ireland enter this tie winless, while Innsbruck picked up a surprise 5-2 over Genève on their CHL debut. Will they rock the Alps for a second time?
Talking of Genève-Servette - the reigning Swiss champions will host Italian side HC Bolzano in the Swiss capital at 19:45 CEST as the hosts desperately look to add to their rather weak points tally of three points.
Another CHL game in Switzerland is scheduled for 19:45 CEST as Rapperswil-Jona Lakers are set to face Finns Lukko Rauma.
The final game of Thursday's schedule will see pointless Red Bull Salzburg face six-point ERC Ingolstadt in the Eisarena Salzburg at 20:20 CEST - will it be a third win in a row for Ingolstadt or will Salzburg win their first points of the season?
Here’s what’s coming up on Thursday (all times CEST):
17:30 Tappara Tampere vs Adler Mannheim
18:00 Dynamo Pardubice vs Stavanger Oilers
19:00 Skellefteå AIK vs Rouen Dragons
19:30 HC Innsbruck vs Belfast Giants
