Pribram vs Milevsko

What looked like a rout turned into a survival test in the third. Milevsko scored on their second power play of the night when Lukáš Volf beat Jiroušek with an unscreened slap shot from the blue line at 40:57. The floodgates opened.

Vojtěch Krcho scored a rebound goal at 42:51 after Daniel Dudáček's initial shot was kicked aside. At 48:06, Krcho struck again — this time a one-timer from Volf's drop pass at the blue line. Just 36 seconds later at 48:42, Jakub Matušík fired a wrist shot from the right circle past Jiroušek to make it 6-5.

Four Milevsko goals in 7 minutes and 45 seconds. The visiting bench called timeout at 58:55 and pulled Pytel for an extra attacker at 59:10. But Hasman intercepted a loose puck and fired into the empty cage at 59:37 for his fifth goal, extinguishing the comeback.

Josef Hasman (Pribram) — 5 goals on the night. Opened the scoring, scored shorthanded, completed a natural hat-trick in the second, and iced the game with an empty-netter. The No. 8 was involved in every key moment for the home side.

Vojtěch Krcho (Milevsko) — 2 goals (42:51, 48:06) plus an assist on Matiášek's first-period power-play goal. His quick release from the blue line caused problems all night.

Tomáš Knotek (Pribram) — Primary assists on both the Kafka power-play goal and Krejčí's strike in the second period. His vision on the half-wall drove two of Pribram's first three goals.

Jan Jiroušek (Pribram) — Made several key saves during Milevsko's push, notably denying a point-blank chance from Šulek at 51:58 when the score was 6-5. Finished with a busy night in net.

Player of the Match: Josef Hasman — five goals in a pre-season friendly is extraordinary by any measure.

Pribram's first-period territorial edge translated to a 2-1 lead, but the decisive margin came in the middle frame where they outscored Milevsko 4-0. The shot volume swung dramatically in the third period as Milevsko chased the game. Pribram scored on the power play (Kafka, 10:09) and shorthanded (Hasman, 35:34), demonstrating special-teams depth, while Milevsko answered with two power-play goals of their own (Matiášek 19:03, Volf 40:57). The 12 combined goals underline the open, transitional nature of a pre-season fixture still finding its defensive shape.

This was the second pre-season friendly for Pribram (they lost 5-3 at Benátky nad Jizerou on 18 August) and an important test of squad depth under head coach Radek Bělohlav. The defensive collapse in the third period — conceding four goals in under 10 minutes — will be a focus area ahead of the regular season. Milevsko, who came into this fixture with recent head-to-head success against Pribram (3-2 in the rivalry), will take heart from their fighting spirit after a disastrous first 40 minutes but will need to resolve porous defensive transitions.

Both sides continue their pre-season schedules; specific fixtures for September were not confirmed at the time of writing.

A pre-season classic in miniature: one team's offensive clinic (Hasman, five goals) meets another's refusal to quit (four goals in 7:45). Pribram got the win they deserved for two dominant periods but will be alarmed by how quickly a 6-1 lead became 6-5. Milevsko will rue their slow start but proved they can score in bunches. For bettors, this fixture's history of goals (37 in 5 meetings, 7.4 per game) held true again.
