Stěhování, nebo farma. Blümel čeká na verdikt, kouč Bostonu byl k němu nemilosrdný

Je to klasická procedura. Když chce klub hráče s jednocestným kontraktem poslat na farmu v AHL, nejprve ho musí zapsat na seznam volných hráčů a nabídnout ostatním 31 klubům. Až po 24 hodinách, když o něj není zájem, se hráč stěhuje o patro níž.

Teď to potkalo i Blümela, který s Bostonem uzavřel v létě kontrakt na 875 tisíc dolarů a první ohlasy ho viděly jako člena třetí lajny s místem v přesilovkové formaci. „Operuje jako Leon Draisaitl,“ tvrdil o české posile Sturm.

Blümel se zkoušel v NHL prosadit v Dallasu, kde ale za tři roky dostal v prvním týmu šanci jen na 13 zápasů (2+0). Že se sžil se zámořským hokejem, však odchovanec Pardubic potvrdil v záložním týmu Texas Stars. Se 39 góly se stal nejlepším střelcem AHL minulého ročníku. A s touto vizitkou chtěl rozrazit dveře v Bostonu.

Ve čtyřech předsezonních startech dal jeden gól, když v průměru hrál kolem 16 minut a podle Sturma zdaleka neukázal, co v něm vězí. „Mám pocit, že v útočné fázi je schopný dostat se na mnohem vyšší úroveň. Zatím jsme to od něj moc neviděli, ale já vím, že to v něm je,“ vyprávěl trenér Bruins, který zná Blümela ještě z doby, kdy koučoval Ontario v AHL.

V kempu však český útočník bývalého bostonského forvarda nepřesvědčil. Nedokázal se uvolnit, aby předvedl všechno, co umí.

„Pro tyhle kluky to není snadné. Chtějí se strašně moc prosadit, ukázat se. Hokejku ale drží někdy až moc křečovitě. Musí být sebevědomější,“ rozebíral Sturm, který na farmu do Providence poslal i Matthewa Poitrase. Nahoře ovšem zůstali útočníci jako Mark Kastelic, Jeffrey Viel nebo John Beecher. Ani přes ně si ale Blümel své místo neuhrál.

„Musí si víc věřit, že může soupeřit s velkými kluky,“ tvrdil Sturm, kterého debut v pozici hlavního kouče NHL v základní části čeká v noci na čtvrtek ve Washingtonu.
