HOCKEY ONLINE: Video moments. Unreal intervention by Will! The Pardubice goalkeeper keeps a goalless record in the fifth final

The Steelers had to do without the services of the second most productive player of the regular season, Martin Růžička, in the final series. The 38-year-old matador was only listed as the 13th striker during the duels on the Trínice ice and played only two minutes due to the shoulder problems he has been dealing with since the semi-final with Sparta. He is waiting for a goal in nineteen matches. For the fifth final, the coaches returned him to the second formation with Nestrašil and Voženielka.

Třinec survived the initial signs from Pardubice and threatened for the first time in the 8th minute. Vladimír Dravecký pounced on Polášek’s pass between the home defenders and drove alone at Will, but his backhand shot was blocked by the Dynamo goalkeeper.

Vondráček threw the puck through the Plexiglas and offered Třinec the first power play and the Steelers could take the lead. Tutovka was owned by Andrej Nestrašil, who hit the puck on the right circle after Růžička’s shot. However, Roman Will moved quickly and robbed the guests of a goal with an incredible save. He hid the puck in the catcher.
