Match Analysis

AI Summary

How It Unfolded

Pardubice B took control from the opening shift. František Formánek opened the scoring at 02:42 after Dominik Hrníčko fed him across the slot, and Petr Hauser doubled the lead at 14:47 from an acute-angle finish off a pass from Tomáš Rolinek and Tomáš Fiala.

The visitors struck twice more early in the second period — both on the power play. Jan Kolář made it 3-0 at 22:48 (assist: Jan Stránský), and Hrníčko scored his own goal at 32:13, again with Stránský providing the primary assist, to make it 4-0.

Litoměřice finally found their rhythm. Lukáš Král pulled one back at 35:12 from close range, and Kryštof Lang converted a power-play chance at 38:50 (assists: Petr Ton, Dominik Sklenář) to send the teams to the second intermission trailing 2-4.

Tomáš Holčák electrified the home crowd 56 seconds into the third period, skating into the slot and roofing a shot top-right corner unassisted to make it 3-4. But Jan Stránský restored the two-goal cushion at 52:28 (assist: Marek Voženílek), and Hauser added his second of the night into an empty net at 59:38 to cap the scoring.

The Turning Point

Holčák's goal at 40:56 gave Litoměřické genuine momentum and forced Pardubice B onto the back foot. But the visitors' response — Stránský's deflection goal at 52:28 after a point shot from Voženílek — killed the comeback inside 12 minutes and restored order.

By the Numbers — Interpreted

Period scores (0-2, 2-2, 1-2) show a game of three distinct acts. Pardubice B controlled the first period through transition efficiency — both early goals came from counter-attacks. The second period told two stories: the visitors' power-play dominance (two PPGs) followed by Litoměřice's improved puck movement and two goals of their own. The third period was Litoměřice's best in terms of territorial play, but Hauser's late empty-netter inflated a scoreline that flattered the margin of Pardubice's superiority in the opening 33 minutes.

What It Means

Both sides continue their pre-season preparations. Litoměřice will look to build on the second-half fightback after trailing 4-0, while Pardubice B — the reserve side of HC Dynamo Pardubice — can take confidence from a dominant start and disciplined special teams performance (two power-play goals). The result extends Pardubice B's positive pre-season form and gives Litoměřice clear defensive transition issues to address before their next friendly.

Verdict

For 33 minutes this was a rout. For the next 20 it was a contest. Pardubice B's quality on the rush and on the power play made the difference against a Litoměřice side that showed character but lacked the finishing depth to complete the comeback. A fair reflection of the gap between a first-league reserve side and a second-tier opponent on this August evening.
