Three sentences: «The feeling is perfect. Especially thanks to goalkeeper Pascal Caminada. The best man in the game. “With these words, SRF sums up Langenthal’s feat in the round of 16 of the Cup against EVZ (2: 1 nV). Words that Caminada rarely heard in the last year. Back then, the 34-year-old man was often used as a scapegoat.
Together with Niklas Schlegel, he was supposed to make Leonardo Genoni forget in Bern. But the SCB lined up bankruptcy after bankruptcy, brought in a foreigner (Tomi Karhunen). And he still missed the playoffs. A short time later, Caminada becomes the father of a daughter for the first time. Thoughts? “Certainly not in hockey,” he says. “I enjoyed the time, I was there for my girlfriend and my daughter.”
“I was never considered a talent”
Caminada processes the season later. “You wonder what could have been done better. At the same time, I only played 8 out of 50 games and came out really bad. “Even so, the cup hero left without resentment.” I was never considered a talent. The focus was always on character, work ethic and the ability to work in a team. ” At Langenthal he now has the role he has always strived for in the highest league. And it feels good. “A great goalkeeper,” says teammate Marc Kämpf, who shot the EVZ to ruin it in extra time.
“It could be another great year”
The Bündner could have stayed in Bern, but decided to return to Langenthal. It is not an easy decision. I had a great time at SCB, ”says the 29-year-old, who at SCL has the opportunity to work in marketing and accompanies CEO Peter Zulauf to meetings with clients. “This is probably the hardest time to win sponsors.”
Kämpf also became a father. For the second time. In May, his wife Irene gave him a daughter.
Cup heroes who went straight home after the coup are excited about their new team. I hope we can continue the season. Because it could still be a cool year, ”says Kämpf.
