VSV can look forward to Michael Raffl’s reinforcement in the Carinthian derby against KAC (Tuesday, from 7.15pm on the LIVE ticker)!
The 31-year-old received mission clearance from the Philadelphia Flyers on time Monday night. The forward will strengthen his hometown club for roughly two weeks in the ICE Hockey League and gain some practice before heading back to the US to begin training for the new NHL season, which is scheduled to begin the January 1st.
“At first the negotiations were a bit difficult. But the longer the break lasted, the happier they were that he could get the match practice together again,” the Villacher-born reports of negotiations with his NHL franchise in a video from VSV on Facebook. .
“The derby is going to depend on the little things. A derby is a derby, at least it was like that nine years ago. I don’t know the level very well, I’ve been out of the league for a while. But I watched the last Reds game. They have a very compact team with a lot of good Austrians, he looked very good. It will be a fight, “Raffl said of the derby.
