Oceláři Třinec took a much needed win in Denmark over Esbjerg Energy, but were made to work for it very hard by the home side.

Having taken the lead thanks to a Martin Adamský marker with 10:22 played, the visitors were somewhat shocked when Carson McMillan levelled the score just a minute later.

The hosts kept the game tied almost the entire way through the middle period, that was until Vladimír Roth found the target at 37:31. No goals in the final period, despite pressure from the Energy to tie it up. The win keeps the Steelers in the hunt for qualification.
