The parsnip arrives. Czech hockey players will receive star reinforcement at the World Cup

“David was very interested in coming to the championship after the end of Boston in the NHL playoffs, and although he was injured at the end of the basic part, his exit health tests went smoothly, and Bruins got the green light,” said Petr Nedvěd, general manager of the national team.

The twenty-six-year-old Pastrňák is waiting for his fourth world championship in his career. He presented himself at tournaments from 2016 to 2018. “If everything goes according to plan, he should be training with the team on Wednesday and he should start the match on Thursday against Latvia,” added Nedvěd.

According to Nedvěd, David Kämpf from the Toronto Maple Leafs most likely should fill the national team roster. “David Kämpf played the whole playoffs without injury and he feels great. We still have to wait for the final confirmation from Toronto, but 99% should arrive at the championship venue on Thursday,” said Nedvěd, who will know the final position during Tuesday night.

Dominik Simon, on the other hand, has left the team for personal reasons and will not return to the team. “As this is a very sensitive personal matter and we respect Dominik’s privacy, please understand that we will not comment further on the whole matter,” said Nedvěd.

Dostál’s health condition, which was to undergo a more detailed examination of an unspecified injury on Monday, remains shrouded in question marks. “There is nothing new yet. We could not leave the last place in the attack for the goalkeepers, the rules did not allow us, so it was not on the agenda,” said Nedvěd. before the last announced reinforcements arrive.
