The Champions Hockey League resumes on Tuesday with the round of 32, but there is only one Hungarian left with Vilmos Galló and Swedish club Linköping.
The CHL started with four Hungarians, Máté Gáspár with EBEL team Black WIngs Linz, Balázs Sebők and Liiga club KalPa and István Sofron and DEL side Krefeld joining Galló.
Galló is not only a member of the SHL team’s roster but has also been on the gameday roster however he has yet to step onto the ice, he has been the 13th forward every time. The last to CHL group stage games he was sick and was unable to dress against IFK Helsinki and SC Bern. He should be making his senior team debut on Tuesday against the Czech club Liberec.
“I will play, at least that's what the coach has promised me.” said Vilmos Galló to HIHF media partner Nemzeti Sport. “I was in the team for the last SHL game against Rögle but unfortunately i didn't get a shift. I don’t know how much I will play but I do know that I will be traveling.”
Linköping travels to Liberec on Tuesday and will play the second leg on October 6th in Sweden.
