Lakers players stare blankly as they emerge from the locker room after the 4-1 loss and playoff in Zug. Groups of people sit on the floor and try to understand what just happened. Others must answer for the failure, which no one expected at the SCRJ after the great qualifying. Neither does Captain Roman Cervenka.
The 37-year-old struggles for words. And fight the tears. The otherwise reserved Czech is very emotional minutes after the end of the season has been sealed. “It’s so hard,” he says. He was disappointed and sad at the same time. One feeling in particular makes him lose his cool: “The feeling that the better team didn’t win. That makes it even harder to accept.”
Cervenka replies that the SCRJ did not lose the quarter-finals in this sixth and final game. But with the first two. His Lakers played extremely well, created big problems for the champions, exposed his defensive weaknesses – but despite the chances he had, it wasn’t enough for a win. “What could we have done better?” Cervenka wonders.
The league’s top scorer in qualifying gives the answers himself: “Our power play didn’t work the whole series. We were looking for a way to score more goals, but we couldn’t find it.” And then he falls, the name that made life so difficult for the SCRJ: master goalkeeper Leonardo Genoni. “He was just too good,” said Cervenka.
For the second year in a row, the Lakers entered the quarterfinals with home field advantage and have established themselves as a consistent top team in the championship. And for the second time, the door of the semi-final was slammed shut. “It still takes something to become a playoff team,” says Yannick-Lennart Albrecht, who won the 2021 championship with EVZ. “It’s a process,” he says. At least the Lakers announced it.
