This year, he was an assistant to coach Craig Ramsay at the World Championship and also worked as a head coach at Slovan Bratislava. Next year, Slovak Andrej Podkonický will play in the KHL…

He was an assistant coach in Zvolen and even the head coach of Slovan Bratislava for the last two seasons.

To make matters worse, he has even been on Craig Ramsay’s implementation team in recent years and has four world championships under his belt in that role. He also has an Olympic bronze in his collection.

But for the next year, this specialist in the weakening and development of defenders will work in Russia, which aggressively attacked Ukraine in February of last year and because of which many people are dying.
