In finals, Roman Málek gets Radegast beer for each hit

So far, Roman Málek has brought despair to the Vítkovice team’s rivals. He holds an excellent average of more than 95 percent of successful hits and has become the main personality of the team from Ostrava. If he obtains the beer in the series against České Budějovice and Pardubice, Roman Málek would enjoy 352 beers. He has effortlessly caught just as many opponent shots.

The prize for Roman Málek is brought by Radegast, an official partner of HC Vítkovice Steel.
