The visiting coach Aleš Totter even accused the home club of negligence after the match, as there was no ambulance at the match. “155” was called only afterwards. However, Venice denies any mistake.
“I would like to respond to the statement of the Prostějov head coach, Mr. Aleš Totter, that we did not provide a medical service, because that is not the case. During the match, the doctor MUDr. Jakub Rezner, who immediately and professionally performed acute treatment on the ice surface, “said Bartoloměj Salanský, general manager of Benátky nad Jizerou.
“Then the rescue service was called, which arrived in fifteen minutes, which is a normal commute. In the meantime, Petr Krejčí was transferred to the infirmary, “Salanský explained.
And it is here that they argue for a derogation from the usual rules. There may not be an ambulance for the match in Venice, as it is being replaced by an above-standard equipped infirmary. This is not possible in the extra league, but in lower competitions. However, it must be consecrated by the Czech Ice Hockey Association (ČSLH).
“The exemption was granted by the executive committee and approved by the medical commission of the Czech Ice Hockey Association. Venice is granted an exemption for one reason only. They have an above-standard equipped infirmary. The doctor was present at the match. During the injury, he hit, stopped the bleeding, stabilized the player and waited for the ambulance, “explained Josef Řezníček, chairman of the disciplinary commission of the hockey association, which is in charge of the first and second leagues. There is no similar exception for the extra league.
Horror in Venice. There was no ambulance, the doctor from the stands helped. Is the union waiting for someone to die ?!

“The exception granted is that if an ambulance was present, as was the case last season, there is only a driver (paramedic) in this car, who then waits for the arrival of an ambulance doctor. Since we have an infirmary in Benátky nad Jizerou in exactly the same way as in ambulances and we have it inspected and approved by the medical commission of the hockey association, we have been granted an exception that an ambulance is not necessary, “Salanský explained.
However, the question is raised by the fact that the announcer during the provision of first aid asked about the presence of doctors among the spectators. The doctor from the auditorium hurried directly to the ice surface. “He wanted to thank everyone who came to help Dr. Rezner, especially the two ladies to whom special thanks go,” Salansky said.
What about Prostějov? “It’s an annoying thing when it comes to players’ health. We will issue a statement for the club in the next few hours, “Ivo Peštuka, Prostějov’s general manager, responded. And how is the 22-year-old defender Petr Krejčí, whose puck hit the face seven minutes before the end?” , “he added.
