One can only hope that the Under-18s will not be discouraged by the last group game of their home World Cup in Basel, drawing 10-0 against the USA. With a sensible foresight, coach Marcel Jenni (49) granted his regular goalkeeper Ewan Huet a break and the young Zuger Kirsch a mission.
Regarding the quarter-finals on Thursday against Canada (5.30pm, live TV24), the coach said on iihf.com: “I think overall we played well in this tournament. We have to stay positive, even after this game. Play our game, play fast and play hard. We want to win.” Even though the Canadians lost 8-0 to defending champion Sweden at the start, it will be a difficult undertaking. The team from the hockey motherland has improved and recently defeated the Czech Republic 8:3.
Huet, who has so far shone with a defense percentage of 94.59 percent and an average of 1.33 goals conceded per game, will have to be turned upside down if the Swiss even dream of a coup. Although his father, goalie legend Cristobal Huet (47), played for France, the 18-year-old has devoted himself to mother Corine’s homeland. His helmet is decorated with Swiss crosses.
Physically, the 1.83 meter tall keeper, who will hopefully grow a bit, has gained a lot lately. He exudes great composure and has already made part-time appearances in the National League at Lausanne.
