The Hungarian national team is in the final stretch as they prepare for the Division 1/A World Championships, which start later this week.
The national team is through its pregame skate, the players who will dress went though a final walk through with the Tamás Sille working out the players who will be scratched against Slovenia. Missing todays game will be goalie Bence Bálizs, defencemen Tamás Pozsgai and Dániel Kiss along with forwards Andrew Sarauer, Áron Reisz and Brance Orbán. Balázs Sebők is with his team KalPa who is playing in the league finals in Finland.
Gergely Majoross, Assistant Coach: The way I see it is that we are in a better physical condition than we were one week ago. This should bring improvements in the smaller details, we will be everywhere a earlier and faster and that will lead to us having more time to make decisions. We have been working on our power play the last few days and we will see what this brings us today.
