The Hungarian national team player won the voting, thanks to more fan and TV expert votes, ahead of Lucas Thaler (EC Red Bull Salzburg) and Fabian Hochegger (EC-KAC).

Dominik Horváth was the first goalkeeper to be nominated for the Young Star monthly selection this season. After consistently good outings at the start of the season, the recently turned 22-year-old goalkeeper received three starts at the beginning of December. In his first two, he recorded two shutouts in a row. Currently, the Hungarian international, who was born in Székesfehérvár and went through all the youth stages at the Hungarian ICE club, holds eight season appearances and a save percentage of 90.7%.

Dominik Horváth: „I am very happy, that I was voted the young star of the month, it does mean a lot to me. I would like to thank my teammates first, that they made my job easy putting up good numbers in December and getting some important wins.

Procedure of the election
First, five monthly winners will be determined. For this purpose, four players per month are nominated to take part in the voting. Due to less gamedays in September 2022, the first two months have been combined into one election. The five monthly winners will then compete in the 2023 playoffs for the title of "Young Star of the 2021/22 season".

The election consists of three components: in addition to the fan voting on the league homepage, the PULS24 experts, as well as journalists vote. If two or more players receive the same number of votes, they will be ranked according to the result of the fan vote.

Monthly Winner of the Young Star Selection:
Miha Bericic (HKO) | September/Oktober
Patrick Söllinger (BWL) | November
Dominik Horváth (AVS) | December
