Faksa se omluvil, obrovsky ale kvituju zájem kluků ze zámoří, říká Rulík

Jak se rodila nominace?

I když v dnešní době nemáme v NHL tolik hráčů jako v minulosti, pořád tam máme kvalitu. Jsme rádi za každého z NHL, kdo má zájem reprezentovat. To se týká jak našich největších hvězd, tak mladých kluků, kteří začínají. Je to příslib do budoucnosti. Máme to rozdělené na NHL a evropskou část. Snažíme se to pak vždy skloubit při přípravném turnaji, když přijedou hráči z NHL nebo potom, když se zapojí přímo na šampionátu.

Jaký bude finální poměr útočníků a obránců v nominaci?

Začneme v režimu sedm obránců a dvanáct útočníků, protože v tuto chvíli máme už jen dva hráče z NHL, kteří přicházejí v úvahu pro doplnění, jde o Davida Kämpfa a Tomáše Hertla. Tato místa necháme volná. Jedna varianta je tedy 12+8, druhá 13+7. Můžeme napsat jenom dva brankáře a třetího případně doplnit během turnaje.

Některé škrty asi byly těžké a citlivé. Proč nakonec nejedou třeba Michal Kovařčík a Jan Košťálek?

Je to těžké, ale co se týče Honzy, tak taky rozhodly osobní důvody, co se týče rodiny. Michal Kovařčík měl na závěr klubové sezony zranění v oblasti kotníku. Pak přijel na reprezentační kemp, potom odjel a zůstal v domácím léčení. Pak se zase zapojil, ale měl deficit v zátěži, který se projevil i na turnaji v Brně. Ve finále jsme se proto rozhodli pro jiného centra.

Jede naopak Jiří Ticháček, kterého jste ve čtvrtek z turnaje vyškrtli, ale po sobotním zranění Michala Kempného povolali zpět. Co rozhodlo pro jeho nominaci?

Měli jsme nějakou kvótu pro turnaj a všechno ovlivnilo zranění Michala Kempného i rozhodnutí Honzy Košťálka, prostor dostal Jirka Ticháček.

Poprvé je v nominaci Petr Kodýtek.

Jednoznačně nás přesvědčil projevem v zápase. Jede od prvního do posledního střídání na sto procent. Nejvíce zabojoval o mistrovství, nechal na ledě všechno. Nekoukal do leva do prava. Věřím, že nám tou bojovností pomůže.

Je nějaká možnost, že by se k týmu připojil Radek Faksa, jehož v St.Louis čeká sedmý zápas prvního kola play off?

Hokejista St. Louis Blues Radek Faksa (vpravo) se z reprezentace omluvil.

V případě, že se připojí Martin Nečas, využijete ho na křídle, kde hrál v klubu, nebo na postu centra?

Budu s ním o tom mluvit. Moje zásada je, aby kluci hráli na postech, na kterých hráli celou sezonu a jsou na ně zvyklí. Uvidíme, v tuto chvíli bych předbíhal, nechme se překvapit. Budu s ním mluvit, zda bude na křídle nebo centru.

Jak si představujete, aby se tým prezentoval na turnaji?

Chceme se prezentovat dobrými výsledky, to je bez diskuze. Jedeme na velké hřiště, na které nejsme zvyklí. Švédi a Švýcaři mají tak velké hřiště v lize a i když vezmou hráče z NHL, kteří na to nejsou zvyklí, tak ti mají velkou kvalitu jako naši hráči z NHL. Musíme tomu kluzišti uzpůsobit styl hry. Pokusíme se být co nejefektivnější.

Vezmete třináct a v případě připojení Nečase čtrnáct mistrů světa z loňského roku. Jak je to pro vás důležité?

Každé mistrovství je jiné, stejně jako skladba týmu. Obrovsky kvitujeme zájem kluků ze zámoří, kteří patří k čilým hráčů s energií. Kluci, co si tím prošli loni, ví, jaká je to cesta a aniž bychom je nabádali, v kabině si k tomu řeknou své. Jsem rádi, že opět máme jádro, a že je to jádro kluků z Prahy.

Do šampionátu vstoupíte v roli úřadujících mistrů, jak velká je touha obhájit zlato?

Nevím jak odpovědět. Chceme udělat co nejlepší výsledek, není to jenom přání prezidenta hokejového svazu, ale je to přání nás a realizačního týmu. V tuto chvíli budeme mít v hlavách jen vstup do šampionátu, to je naše filozofie, posouvat náš výkon, abychom byli zápas od zápasu lepší.

Pomůže vám na turnaji zase svými postřehy z tribuny nějaký zkušený trenér jako loni v Praze třeba Pavel Gross?

Letos budeme mít na tribuně Patrika Augustu.

MS v hokeji 2025

88. ročník mistrovství světa v hokeji je na programu v termínu od 9. do 25. května 2025. Hostit jej bude Švédsko a Dánsko, konkrétně Stockholm a Herning. Ještě předtím od 23. dubna do 4. května se koná MS do 18 let v USA.

Can Nick Chubb join Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce to transform the Kansas City Chiefs’ rushing attack for a 2025 Super Bowl?

The Kansas City Chiefs boast one of the NFL's most formidable rosters, but as the 2025 season approaches, their ground game remains a weak link.

The Dallas Cowboys are predicted to have a tough time in the new NFL season

Lance McCullers Jr.’s return to mound shows Astros will need to be patient

CHICAGO — It ended on something out of his control, a cruel instance of irony for a pitcher whose career has stalled under identical circumstances. His comeback should have concluded with a called third strike on a full-count curveball, the pitch that once launched Lance McCullers Jr. into immortality and helped bring Houston its first American League pennant.The one he spun in the fourth inning on Sunday afternoon carried no such stakes, but still caught the top of Joshua Palacios’ strike zone. Home-plate umpire Shane Livensparger disagreed and deemed it a ball. Palacios proceeded to first base and the entire Houston Astros infield went to the mound. McCullers' final pitch, a 3-2 pitch, certainly appeared to be a strike pic.twitter.com/Up7nwV9PKP — Brian McTaggart (@brianmctaggart) May 4, 2025Manager Joe Espada met them there, offering a handshake to McCullers on a milestone […]
