It would be hard for the four of them to ever meet again. But David Pastrňák sat at a table in his Boston house at noon local time, three of the quartet of bronze medalists from the Anterselva World Biathlon Championships from various parts of the Czech Republic, Markéta Davidová, Ondřej Moravec and Michal Krčmář ) of journalists.
Pastrňák admitted that with a gun in his hand he would not be as accurate a shooter as with a hockey stick. And not skiing at all. “I never stood on them,” the Havířov native surprised. “It simply came to our notice then. Learn to ski or snowboard. I really like to watch it, but I really wouldn’t be a good biathlete, “he continued amusedly.

And so, when given the opportunity, he asked the Czech national team via the computer screen when it was best to start skiing. Although it was clear to him that at the age of 24, he had long since missed the ideal time. “I’m from the Jizera Mountains, so I started from an early age, actually in kindergarten,” Markéta Davidová was the first to answer. “So you had it right behind the barracks,” the hockey striker nodded.
In the opposite direction, the experience was much greater, biathletes traditionally hold hot hockey swords after the season. And the innkeeper stands out among the bars.
“I stood on skates from an early age and my dream was to go to the gate. And in those matches after the season there was a chance to try it, I go to the goal every year, I bought my weapons. But to stand against David’s shot, I would probably change my mind, “laughed Krčmář and his partner Moravec added:” I also went to hockey as a child, but I wouldn’t shoot a golfer either, I can’t stand it properly, “he admitted.
When the journalistic questions on Pastrňák were exhausted, the moderator repeatedly offered to disconnect from the press conference. “You’re still throwing me out,” Pastrňák responded amusedly, went for a drink and listened to the story of the biathlon aces. Immediately, he even mingled with the journalists when asked.
“This is David Pastrňák’s Boston News. I would like to ask what is your favorite destination and why, “said from Boston.
And so David told him what Anterselva was sitting in, Moravec talked about Ruhpolding and Krčmář about how he competes great in Nové Město na Moravě and Östersund doesn’t have to, for which he immediately apologized to Pastrňák, whose friend Rebecca is from Sweden. “That’s good, she still doesn’t understand Czech,” the hockey gunner responded promptly.
