In a closed match, Chamonix got the better of Cergy-Pontoise (1-0) despite 43 saves from Sebastian Ylönen, the Jokers goalkeeper. The Pioneers thus come back to within one point of their evening opponents. Finally, Grenoble remains undefeated at home after its victory against Bordeaux (5-2). The Brûleurs de loups will play again on Saturday evening against Nice, still at home, in an advanced match of the 25th day.
