Contract extension: Hasko & Zilinek
ERC Ingolstadt extended the contracts of Igor Hasko and Ivan Zilinek for another season. The Slovakians serve the players as equipment manager and soul of the team. Sports Director Larry Mitchell says, that Igor and Ivan are important parts of the team and highly regarded amongst the players and coaches for the work and their devotion.
Hasko started working as equipment manager in the early 1990ies with Slovan Bratislava (now part of the KHL). After years in Wolfsburg, the huge and big guy joined ERC Ingolstadt in 2014. In 2017, his fellow countryman Ivan Zilinek came in and helps the players as well. They are the technical support for the team, taking care of the equipment and the locker room. Also, the logistic is a big part of their job with 20.000 kilometeres on the road each year.
ERC Ingolstadt would also like to thank Sebastian "Waschti" Regnat, Andreas "Anderl" Weinzierl and Facility Manager Waldemar "Waldo" Maier for their work. They make sure that the players can concentrate on hockey.
