Bulls look back
Coach David: “We were like Buddhist monks”
Coach Oliver David and manager Helmut Schlögl look back on the season. The basic squad for the new season should be finalized in the next few weeks.
The historic "three-peat" was achieved, the repeated title defense was celebrated extensively. Now that things have calmed down a little, Eisbullen coach Oliver David also looks back on his first season at the Salzach. "We had the best start and the best finish of the season," summarized the US-American. He was particularly impressed by the mentality of his players: "We had ups and downs during the season, that's normal, but when the play-offs started, there was suddenly a great sense of confidence that we would win the title, as if a switch had been flipped."
We were like Buddhist monks, just concentrating on the task at hand. For example, we haven't talked about contracts at all since the start of the play-offs

For the 45-year-old, the focus in the dressing room was the decisive factor: "We only ever thought about the next game. We were like Buddhist monks, concentrating only on the task at hand. For example, we haven't talked about contracts at all since the start of the play-offs." Together with Bulls manager Helmut Schlögl, he can now rack his brains over this.nine Bulls to the teamSeason-ending talks have already taken place with the players. A squad meeting will be held today. "We'll see who has developed further and can perhaps take on a different role," explains Schlögl. The basic squad should be finalized by the end of May.
What is certain, however, is that nine cracks from Salzburg will be called up to the national team. Kickert, Stapelfeldt and Wimmer are already in camp. Raffl, Nissner, Schneider, Paul and Mario Huber as well as Wukovits are to follow. However, it is not yet clear when. "After such a long and hard season and such a final series, it's not easy mentally. I hope they find the right time", Schlögl would prefer a later start.M. Grill
