wow also Idzan zerbombt mit seine 18 Jahren die ALPS ja wirklich komplett, 12 Spiele 17 Tore und 7 Assists
bin gespannt wo und wie die Reise für ihn nach der Saison weiter geht
According to the one of his interviews he has few offers from ICE and few from NCAA....
Denkt mal zurück wie es seinerzeits bei Zagreb war. Da gab es für etliche Spieler zur Vertragsunterzeichnung als Zuckerl den kroatischen Pass dazugeschenkt.
But vast majority of them did have croatian origins which, by croatian law, eases whole process of gaining citizenship 
Probably I am not the only one asking why did he not stay in Sweden. For the Sisak he is a gift from above, but he is the greatest talent of the Croatian hockey in history (except Borna maybe), so I do not know if it is the smartest move to play in the Alps. Impressive stats, 18 years, 9 games, 15 goals, 20 points.
He had rough last season, where coach simply ignored him. Which is odd, since season before (22/23) he already was putting up points at J20 as 16/17yrs old. Alps league is not EBEL of course, but it is still serious (semi)pro league especially from perspective of 18-yrs old. With stats like that I am sure he will sign somewhere else, if not after this season, then after 25/26 when he is no longer U20 player.
In derby game Sisak - Kitzbuhel 5:1, Bruno Idžan (18) 3+1
When is timetable for Katic's return ?
Und man darauf bestanden hat, dass Sisak alle 3 Spiele in Vorarlberg bestreiten muß!!!!
And in case of playoff meeting Sisak will play it's "home" games in Ljubljana (or Zalog)...
I also wonder how long Sisak can keep this up. For them, every away trip is such a long journey. It's almost impossible to work at the same time. Even if the additional costs such as rent or bus fares are probably less, it will still cost a lot of money.
As mentioned in my previous post, Sisak managment knew very well what they are getting in when joining Alps league in terms of travel costs and distances. So they planned their budget that way. With informations I have most players of Sisak don't work, hockey is their primary job, maybe some of them have small business which doesn't require to be in office 8-16 and some of them are studying online.
They left for Cortina today (game is tomorrow) and are returning early on Sunday morning (game against Unterland is on saturday).
Regarding attendance, don't think it will drop for few reasons. People in Sisak loves hockey, games are not so often (next home fixture is on 26th october), and besides Sisak there is no other quality sport in town. For example soccer club Segesta is currently in Croatian 3rd division, it is same club that used to play in 1st league and even beat Dinamo and Hajduk from time to time.
Even if, God forbid, Alps league cease to exist, Sisak will probably switch to Erste liga, because managment is very commited to have professional league in town.
KHL Sisak will probably throw in the towel in a few years because of the travel costs. But big respect to them for putting up with the league!
You never know about money in this turbulent times, but from everything I've heard, they are in good shape money wise, and they knew from first day that trips will eat good portion of club budget. Only fear is if AUT/ITA teams will get tired of traveling to Sisak....
I stand corrected, meant most of players played IHL last year!
Good to have an expert in croatian hockey to provide us with more details. You can be proud of Sisak, Bruno Idžan is most certainly in top 3 players under 20 years as 18 years old
It's still early, but they do look very promising. While players are executors on the ice, I think this is all due to coach. From what I've heard he is very systematic, looks at every detail and has iron fist. Reportedly, they were skating some "punishment circles" after one video analysis where he counted around 70 missed pass chances to teammate(s)...
Now ex-GM Luka Jarčov said in one podcast before start of AHL that he thinks how they will have hard time to keep Siembida for next season...well, if day is known by the morning....
Sisak is playing really well, I'm surprised. The squad hasn't changed that much, but they look like a completely different team.
What I am particularly interested in is how B. Idžan is developing. In January 2023, many NHL scouts came to the HV71 U20 games to see him play. It is clear that it did not go as planned... let's see if he continues to develop.
However, one fact disappointed me very much: Sisak did not get Mr. Sysak: https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/467718/ivan-sysak
Killjoys...
:irony:
A lot of new players came for this season. Idzan brothers, Marinkovic, Rosandic, Kasparek, Smolec, Mikkola, Briere, Bronte, Dostalek...that's almost half of team. But I do agree they look very promising so far.
Alps hockey league is in it's last contract year, right ?
KHL Sisak so far in pre-season
against Celje 3:8 - scorers B. Idžan, V. Idžan 2x (played without briere, dostalek, rosandic and canic)
@Ujpest 3:0 - scorers B.Idžan 2x, Briere
Villach 3:7 - B.Idžan, Briere, Bronte
@Dunajvarous 4:1 - Briere 3x, Ćanić (played without Dostalek, Bronte and Rosandic)
Are there highlights from VSV - Sisak game ?
Did Sisak changed goalie during game ?
Rumors say, that he already has signed for Vsv in the break
I hope you are joking... ?
I think it was number 20 idzan
How surprisingly 
His 4th in 3rd game...
who scored for Sisak ? Which number ? they don't have names on jerseys
Look at other games from EA… a new expansion? Buy it! Oh you want a DLC? Buy it. You want cosmetics? Buy them.
EA is a pro in making money in kind of everything, they are not the only one, yes, but they are just the biggest publisher with „cashcow farms“.
And it is not just when it comes to sports games. I remember ten years ago when they canceled Generals 2 because they didn't plan singleplayer campaign at the release. Imagine how cocky you need to be not to include singleplayer mode in real-time strategy game. 
I don't expect much but I'll buy it again anyway.
The current Ultimate Team has become very boring.
Had all players at 99 weeks ago.
I hope they hold back a bit with the cards for the 25th
It's one of the main reasons why gameplay is still better in NHL 14 than in these new versions
EA only cares about that mode....
Sisak started today with ice...
Sometimes. So far no livestreams where announced. This game has free entry, so i highly doubt that there will be a livestream
So, If I want to come to Villach, I need to pick up ticket in your fan-shop, right ?
KHL Sisak, der erste Gradmesser. Wenn wir da mithalten können, kann es nur auf den Titel hinauslaufen
Do VSV usually stream pre-season game(s) ?
Firstly, Celje had bad luck with flooding in their region last year. The whole situation has put them at a disadvantage both in sporting and financial terms. Let's see how they handle this season.
Sisak is a pretty solid team on paper. Yes, I know Croatians can't play hockey, but basically all the key players on this team grew up playing hockey abroad: Sweden, Slovakia, etc.
eg B. Idžan would have been drafted if he hadn't messed up last season.
If I ignore nationality, I cannot understand why, for example, Unterland is a much stronger team (than either Celje or Sisak).
Of course it would be better if the league returned to the original participants, but it's no big deal. At least I'm sure that the atmosphere at the games in Sisak will be fantastic.
Actually that's only partially true. All of them went to Sweden, Slovakia, etc... after they dominated Slovenian youth leagues in various Croatian teams (or selections). Which means they learned all their basic skills in Croatia, while fine-tuning them abroad. And let's not forget that Medvescak U20 reached EBYSL finals in 2015/2016. losing to RBS in finals. One game in Zagreb - and we are talking about juniors - were attended by 3,000 fans....
Completely new!
It's beautiful !
Is this completely new arena or upgraded old one ?
