Štěpán Hřebejk came to Karlovy Vary during the last season and he was one of the best players of team. But this season he has different and worse assertion. In the last matches he played usually in the fourth line. For his best he will try to play for a month in nearby Chomutov. He needs to have more playing time and be more on ice. This change should help him.
Dmitrij Cyganov will play for rest of this season, so until April 30, 2011, in Slovak´s extra league. He played at the begining of this season in the basic team but in the few last games he played also in the fourth line. He played also for few matches in Kadaň, where they play the first league. But also this wasn´t lucky choice for him because they have a lot of forwards. Because of it Energie found for him better use and it is in Slovakia in Skalice. He should recieve there a lot of new experiences which should help him to be in the basic A team in the following season in Karlovy Vary.
Energie recieved in the first of the extra league good 40 points but a lot of players have problems with their health. Jan Košťal will be back in his position after his recovery. But a coach has more problems with defensemen now. Because hurt are David Nosek, Petr Gřegorek, Karol Sloboda. Also Martin Parýzek has problems with health and he wouldn´t be able to play for four or six weeks. This situation mean for Ján Mucha and Roman Prošek comeback to A team. With them will be there Petr Přindiš. He came to Karlovy Vary from Sokolov. He played here in junior league in the past. His shooted decided about victory with Zlín in 2008. From this season he has played a lot of matches in Kadaň. So we will see how he will play here.

Defensman David Hájek won´t play for rest of season in Energie. Until April 30, 2011 he will play on hosting in Slovan Bratislava. Why? David didn´t have sufficient results. The last season he played with success in Kladno, so this year he changed clubs. But his playing during this season isn´t as good as it should be. So they all decided about his hosting in Slovan Bratislava for rest of this season. It would be on him and his results, if he will stay there and play for Slovan Bratislava in next season, too.
On his possition, possition of 9th beck of club moved up Martin Rohan. He has played already one match in this season in A team. It was his premiere. But now he should be the 9th defensman in A team. He has pretty good results in junior team. Martin has already collect in 21 matches 15 Canadian points (2+13) and he is the third most productive defensman in the highest junior league. In Karlovy Vary´s team of coach Karel Mlejnek collected more points just Jaromír Kverka junior, who is playing now in United States.

Another shoot was two minutes later from rival Pardubice from Mezei. They were as same unsuccessful as Energie. These situations continued to the 9th minute.

Lukáš and Tomáš Klíma. These two names are declined throught Energie. Both of these boys are 20 years old, there are brothers–twins. Also both of them have Czech and Slovak nationalities, so there are Czechoslovaks. They are nephews of legend of Czechoslovak ice hockey Petr Klíma.
Brothers Klíma are coming to Karlovy Vary from Slovak ice hockey team Trenčín. Lukáš and Tomáš are on the top of list in their category in ice hockey. The brothers have signed contracts until the end of season 2015, exactly to April 30, 2015. Both of them have also experiences with Czech hockey because they played in younger age in Litvínov, Kadaň and Klášterec.
Back home in Slovakia in Trenčín they were drafters of team. Their junior team won last year championship in Slovakia. We can see it in statistics, too. Tomáš Klíma played in 39 matches and got 71 points and his brother Lukáš played in 46 matches and recieved 70 points. Brothers Klíma also played in adults Slovakia league.

It will be on him and his games when he will be connect to A team of Energie, too. About both of them are coaches sure on summer trainings and preparations for the following season.
Lukáš and Tomáš Klíma are interesting from another point of view, too. Their uncle Petr Klíma played in NHL almost 800 matches. Boy´s father is Czech and mother Slovak, so they have Czech and Slovak nationalities. That mean they are like Czech players and they are not foreigners
