Jakub štěpánek will play to win the title and the beer

The manager of the Radegast brand, Pavel Kmínek, explains the rules of this beer incentive: “At the end of the tournament, we will compare the number of goals gotten by the goalies, Jakub Štěpánek and his opponent. Every goal, which the Ostrava goalie gets, means 100 Radegast beers for the goalie from Vítkovice.”

This closely monitored duel between goalies, stars of Czech hockey, adds another dimension to Moravian hockey thanks to Radegast, who is a big fan. At the end of April, we will find out which goalie is the winner.
