As HC Ambrì-Piotta writes in a press release, the Czech goalie wants to make use of an interesting training opportunity with Ambrì. Although the Leventinesi still do not know when Gauthier Descloux will return from Genève-Servette HC, a signing of an import goalie to replace him is out of the question, the club states. With Kral joining the team, Connor Hughes will be able to suit up for the HCB Ticino Rockets.

Only recently, Tomas Kral dissolved his contract with Piráti Chomutov in the Czech Extraliga because he had received an offer from abroad, hokej.cz reported a week ago. He was set to be Piráti's backup goalie for the upcoming season.
