Quotes:
Greg Holst, Headcoach EC VSV: „It’ll be tough, Znojmo didn’t play on Tuesday. They’ll be fresh, while it’ll be our fourth game in 7 days. We’ll have to find a way. We’ll have to get back to 4 lines and have energy to win a point or two at home.“
David Bartos, Forward HC Orli Znojmo: „Our team has great potential and power. After defeats we always bounce back quickly. Now after our home-win over Graz we can go to Villach with a win in the back and that gives us an extra push!”
