Interview Mario Huber

After last week's international break, during which the majority of the team gathered new energy and six Austrians (David Kickert, Paul Stapelfeldt, Philipp Wimmer, Nikolaus Kraus, Lucas Thaler and Ali Wukovits) played with the Austrian national team at the Germany Cup in Landshut, the team is ready for the playoffs in the European premier league. The convalescents Florian Baltram and Phillip Sinn are not present.

“We were happy to be back together after the break, had a good training session today and are ready for tomorrow. The ice in the arena in Lahti is good, so nothing stands in the way of a good game against Lahti. We are 100% ready.”
