Kämpf si raději bedlivě střežil výstroj. I bez zápasové praxe je připraven: Vážím si důvěry

Před třemi roky dorazil do Tampere v průběhu základní skupiny, jenže podobně jako letos Martinu Nečasovi se mu zatoulala taška s výstrojí. To už nyní Kämpf nechtěl opakovat. „Přestupoval jsem v Mnichově, radši jsem si tam výstroj vzal a znovu se odbavil. A tak šance, že by se ztratila, byla minimálně. Ani jsem z toho nebyl nervózní,“ líčil.

Při odletu z Kanady navíc nevěděl, jestli cílovou destinací bude Stockholm, nebo dánský Herning. „To bylo trochu zvláštní. Ale měli jsme pojištěné obě varianty. Jakmile jsem vystoupil z letadla, už jsem měl v mobilu letenku,“ popisoval.

David Kämpf na tréninku české hokejové reprezentace.

„Náročnější byly spíš ty věci okolo. Všechno zabalit, domluvit, dát dohromady. Jsem rád, že už je to za námi, že rodina je doma a já jsem tady. Všechno to dobře dopadlo,“ liboval si chomutovský odchovanec, který už si ozkoušel led v Avicii Areně.

„Jenom jsem přijel na hotel vyložit věci a jel jsem se sklouznout, abych byl připravený. S kluky jsem se zatím jenom pozdravil,“ říkal.

Dorazit na vrchol turnaje neváhal také proto, že trenér Radim Rulík o mistra světa z Prahy hodně stál. Navzdory tomu, že Kämpf už od začátku dubna odehrál jediné utkání! Nejprve ho vyřadilo zranění v horní části těla, následně už se v play off do sestavy Toronta vyjma jediného případu nevešel.

„Cítím se dobře. Věděl jsem, že tahle situace může nastat, připravoval jsem se na to. Věděl jsem, že po kondiční stránce jsem na tom stejně, jako bych hrál zápasy. Není žádný problém. Jenom se potřebuju trochu vyspat,“ usmál se. „Samozřejmě naskočit do rozjetého mistrovství je rychlé, člověk se najednou objeví, musí hrát a podat stoprocentní výkon. Ale já jsem s tím srovnaný a půjdu do toho naplno,“ přislíbil.

Důvěry trenérů si váží. „Je to pro mě čest a děkuji jim, že mě povolali i takhle v průběhu turnaje a můžu si prodloužit sezonu. Budu jim to chtít splatit,“ poznamenal Kämpf. Je pro něj výhodou, že z loňského šampionátu už Rulíkův systém velmi dobře zná. „Bude to podobné, s trenéry navzájem víme, co od sebe můžeme čekat,“ mínil.

David Kämpf (vpravo) si na tréninku vyzkoušel i Michigan.

S koučem zatím svou roli neprobíral, jelikož se viděli jen letmo. „Jsem tu krátce, o tomhle jsme se nebavili. Každý trochu ví, jaká je moje role, jaký jsem hráč. Takže to asi nebude nic nového,“ předpovídal Kämpf, jenž by se mohl zařadit stejně jako v Praze po bok Martina Nečase. „Zatím nevím, jak se trenéři rozhodnou,“ podotkl jen.

Fungovat by mohla spolupráce také s Jakubem Laukem, s nímž se dobře zná z Chomutova. „Hráli jsme spolu, bylo by fajn oprášit spolupráci. Už minulý rok bylo speciální, že jsem si mohl zahrát s Ondrou Kašem, se kterým jsme velcí kamarádi. Je super, že se tu takhle můžeme potkat,“ pochvaloval si Kämpf.

MS v hokeji 2025

88. ročník mistrovství světa v hokeji je na programu v termínu od 9. do 25. května 2025. Hostí jej Švédsko a Dánsko, konkrétně města Stockholm a Herning.

Loni právě jeho formace s Nečasem a Dominikem Kubalíkem úžasným výkonem rozhodla o semifinálového výhře 7:3 nad Švédy. „Byl to skvělý zápas, velké vítězství pro nás. Naší lajně se to povedlo, mám na to moc hezké vzpomínky,“ připouštěl. Tentokrát ovšem budou mít výhodu domácího prostředí Seveřané. „Atmosféra bude výborná,“ tuší Kämpf.

David Kämpf si ozkoušel led ve Stockholmu na dobrovolném tréninku.

Švédsko navíc rovněž získalo last minute posilu z Toronta, na čtvrtfinále dorazil hvězdný William Nylander. „Bavili jsme se spolu, ale v tu chvíli ještě nevěděl, jestli poletí. Takže nakonec asi přiletěl ještě později než já,“ podotýkal český forvard. „Ještě nikdy jsem proti němu nehrál, bude to zajímavé,“ pokračoval.

Ve čtvrtek od 20:20 čeká reprezentaci opravdová šichta. „Švédi vypadají silně, stejně jako loni mají velká jména. Ale my musíme hrát naši hru, pracovat dobře v defenzivě a vyvarovat se zbytečných chyb,“ velel Kämpf.

OTTAWA — The PWHL Finals is now a best-of-three after the Minnesota Frost defeated the Ottawa Charge in a dramatic 2-1 overtime win on Thursday night.Ottawa’s Jocelyne Larocque, the 37-year-old veteran shutdown defender who was acquired in a blockbuster trade with Toronto in December, appeared to score the game-winner with less than three minutes remaining in the third period.
