Spišiaci started actively from the beginning, but neither Majdan nor Bortňák took advantage of their chances. On the other side, Mikúš threatened, but both goalkeepers held their teams. In the 7th minute, Archambault made a solo escape, but he did not beat Janus. Shortly after that, the defense of the home team made a big mistake and Jokeľ sent Košice into the lead. The guests improved their movement, asserted themselves more prominently in the attacking zone, and in the 18th minute Lalonde confirmed it with a goal.

The home team reduced the score in the middle of the duel during the power play thanks to captain Rapáč. Jääskeläinen restored the two-goal lead to the “Steelmen” after 55 seconds of the third period. Spišiaci got back into the game in the 47th minute, when Bakoš beat Janus with a finish from the right circle. From then on, Wojnar’s men pushed for an equalizer and succeeded in doing so with a numerical advantage.

Kerbashian made it 3:3 with a backhand. The home team could have taken the lead for the first time shortly after that, but Bakoš was caught by Janus in a great chance. The duel went to extra time at 3:3. The home team rejoiced in the 75th minute after Majdan’s goal, but in the end, the accurate shot was ruled out for offside. After all, Spišiaci scored the decisive goal at the beginning of the second overtime, when Bakoš prevailed.

Before the match, the management of the home club presented striker Michael Vandas with a symbolic jersey because he had played 500 matches in the highest Slovak competition.

“It wouldn’t make sense later. I take responsibility,” says the president of the club from Zemplín, which ranks 4th in the hockey extra league table.

It was a move that was met with displeasure from the players’ cabin. Although she stood up for Petr Kúdelka, he is no longer the coach of HK Dukla hockey players Ingem Michalovce. Currently, the 4th team of the Tipos extraliga announced the termination of cooperation with Kúdelko and also announced the name of his successor.

Tomek Valtonen, a 44-year-old Finn with Polish roots, became the new coach of the Zemplín team. He already worked in the club in the recent past, he spent the last two seasons on the bench of the Italian participant of the international ICEHL HC Pustertal.

The head coach of HK Dukla Michalovce, Peter Kúdelka, is ending his position. This information was confirmed by the club on its Facebook page.

A different performance than they expected

“We have the feeling, after unsuccessful matches, especially with Nový Zámky and Humenný, that the performance of the game is different than we expected,” Marek Michajlo, the president of the Michalov club, explained to RTVS the reason for the coaching change.

The fact that the team under his leadership pulled a string of 12 victories in a row in November and December did not help Kúdelka to stay in his position. If it could manage the last two matches in the calendar year 2023 against Spišská Nová Ves, it would reach the top of the table. Until the end of the regular season, Michalovce has 11 more meetings. They will next appear on Wednesday in the home playoff against Košice.

“It wouldn’t make sense later. We decided at twelve o’clock. I take responsibility,” stated Michajlo.

Kúdelka is pleased with the feedback from the players

The appeal of the former coach of Michaloviec was already frozen. He stands behind the work done and claims that he will not remember Michalovce in a bad way.

“I look forward to the feedback I get from all my clients. From players who played in the NHL, KHL or are long-term players of the Slovak extra league, as well as from young players. I will not remember Michalovce bitterly. On the contrary,” Kúdelka told RTVS.

He also thanked the fans and told them to continue to support the club. His resignation caused sharp reactions among supporters. Dissatisfied expressions abounded on social networks, the fan club even before confirming this move announced a possible boycott.

“Not all fans like it. I understand this. We will evaluate this change after the season,” Michael said. At the same time, he expressed the hope that with Staron’s coach on the bench, they will achieve even more in the current season than winning bronze medals, which the people of Michalov enjoyed under Valtonen’s leadership in the 2020/21 season.
