The son you want

Sádecký was born, grew up playing hockey and spent the best years of his career in Trenčín. In the most popular city in Slovakia. As a 15-year-old boy, starting coach Viliam Čacho joined him in the team. “I don’t want it to sound like a cliché, but Boris was an exemplary boy. Everyone would like such a son. He recognized values ​​and lived according to them, “she blurted out of the former attacker.

It was Čach’s first coaching stance and he mentions the talented mentee as follows: “Boris was very sensible, skilful and responsible. He behaved exemplary at school, in the locker room but also elsewhere. Despite a health problem with his knees, it still drew him to the cold and he always ran away so fast that he became a representative, “he added.

By the way, he allegedly paid the fine to the local treasury only twice. Once he forgot to take the ball on the bus for a traditional pre-match bago and the other for not coming to the home duel dressed in a shirt.

He was not only a hockey player, his scope was much larger. He graduated from university, management at Comenius University in Bratislava. “Hockey does not guarantee me anything. Injuries can come at any time. But it was manageable, “he said.

The Trenčín hockey game, which has meanwhile been scattered around the world, is in tremendous pain. “I can’t even express her. I feel endless emptiness in my heart. Me, and my whole family. Sádo embodied good. He connected people. He was a real gentleman, “added Dominik Briestenský, who, together with Sádecký, went hand in hand through the Trenčín selections to the 2016 World Championships in Helsinki.

A year later – in Toronto in 2017 – he got a chance again. In the first attack, he was one of the most productive Slovaks with three assists. “In Canada we lived together in a room,” Andrej Hatala, also Trenčan, currently a defender of Nové Zámky, told us.

“The matches didn’t work out for me, he saw that I was worried and so Sado tells me: Hata, cough it up, it’s still just hockey. And this way I will remember him as a nice person, classmate, teammate and friend. Rest in peace. I will never forget, “he confessed.

He is said to remain in his heart as an honest and positive person who was one of the best students. Honest in the gym and in lifestyle.

Watching Demitra

He was not a player who would regularly stretch the net behind the opponent’s goalkeeper. But when he succeeded, it was worth it. Above all, his two goals – the first for Slovan, the second for his native Trenčín – will remain part of history. Both carry code no. 38. Sádecký used the trick of poor Pavel Demitra. As perfect as its more famous predecessor.

He was only 20 years old when he played in the fourth Slavic attack in the KHL. In the match against Yaroslavl, he deftly got rid of the defender at the mantinel and just in front of the goalkeeper, he fantastically lifted the puck with the blade of a hockey stick, which he had between his legs. “It came by itself, the stars were probably set that way, I really don’t know. Out of nowhere, it made sense to me and it worked out, “he explained contentedly to the media. However, he admitted that he is trying such an ending in training.

“I’ll make a joke here and there, but I wouldn’t allow it in a match. Only now. Of course, I knew that Paľo Demitra scored such a goal. I remember that, I saw records of his goals in the video, I have a look at it, “he smiled.

In two years he repeated something similar in the extra league. This time, in the most beloved jersey, he pushed through the four defenders of MAC Budapest and again, between the legs and over the shoulder of the goalkeeper, he finished. Really, as if Demitra still managed to pass on the driving know-how to him. With pendant: For Boris. Turnkey!

“You have always been and will be a part of our club. You will miss all your teammates and friends. Forever in our hearts, “Dukla said on social networks.

Before the start of the current season – after three years in the Slovak competition – he wanted to try something new. The choice fell on the transnational IHL and Bratislava Capitals. He managed to play eleven duels. In the penultimate, he even gave a hat-trick. A few days in Dornbirne, at the end of the first third, his heart collapsed.

Honor his memory…
