The coach of the Slovakian national team, Craig Ramsay, had to make four changes in the nomination before the German Cup, at the meeting on Monday in Bratislava, “only” 12 compatriots from the Czech extra league reported to him.
The Vítkovice defender dropped out of the original nomination

defender, 26 years old

The coaching staff thus called fullbacks Samuel Hain from Zvolen and Marko Korenčík to the vacated positions. He expanded the number of nominated players from the seventh Slovan Bratislava, led by Vladimír Růžička, to five! “I don’t see a reason for it, it causes unnecessary negative energy,” noted Slovak journalist Tomáš Prokop said on Twitter.
The offensive ranks were completed by Juraj Šiška from Zvolen and Andrej Kukuča from Poprad, who, together with Korenčík, is waiting for the premiere in the colors of the national team. They thus joined the debutantes Matej Kašlík and

“When Grman dropped out, we chose Hain. He’s a similar type of player who is useful in breakdowns and works well in the defensive zone. Kukuča and Šiška are very productive in their teams and at the same time have good proportions for attackers. Korenčík was called practically at the last moment. He really liked Craig Ramsay, who watched him for a long time. He is the prototype of a player who fit into the vacant place in our lineup,” said assistant coach Peter Frühauf on the hockeyslovakia.sk website.
The ratio of nominees from the Slovak and Czech extra leagues is thus 11:12 after the changes. The goalkeepers will go to the opening event of the season
