Bad Tölz - Up the Isar is the motto for Dominik Bohac.
The 31-year-old defensive specialist comes from league competitor EV Landshut and completes a quartet of defenders with contracts for the coming season at the Tölzer Löwen.
Routine is currently the trump card for the Lions.
A few days after the second division announced the whereabouts of goal scorer Lubor Dibelka (38), a newcomer follows in Dominik Bohac, who also has several professional years under his belt.
Before his time in Landshut, Bohac played for the Schwenninger Wild Wings in the DEL (91 missions) and for the second division Lausitzer Füchse.
Before that, he gained impressions overseas and was active in the Czech extra league after his return to Pilsen.
Together with Marcus Götz, the German-Czech plays the routine part of the Löwen defense, which so far includes the talents Maxi Leitner and Niklas Hörmann, and the commitment of a contingent player is considered likely.
Contract in Landshut dissolved
Bohac originally had a contract in Landshut, but dissolved it in agreement with the club. "They weren't satisfied with their last season here," explains Landshut's sports director Axel Kammerer, who nonetheless only joined the Niederbayern team in February and only accompanied the final phase of the talks as a squad planner. Bohac had his strengths in his physique, but suddenly “no longer” could bring them to bear for no apparent reason. "He had a relatively high error rate and couldn't build on the previous season," emphasizes Kammerer. According to the Reichersbeurer, there have been several offers for Bohac. That it was now the lions came as a surprise even to Kammerer. In principle, the former promotion coach does not have a bad opinion of the Tölz newcomer. Bohac have strengths in duels,Always play hard on the body and be a team player.
Two years of DEL experience at Schwenningen Wild Wings
The DEL experience from his two-year guest appearance at the Wild Wings should suit the Isarwinkler well. Tyler McNealy, for example, let coach Kevin Gaudet know that it wasn't much fun to play against Bohac. “Because he's a fighter.” Gaudet got a picture of the ex-Landshut, and also got the opinion of sports director Jürgen Rumrich, who knew Bohac from their time together in Schwenningen. "His opinion carries a lot of weight," said Gaudet about Rumrich's expertise and finally raised his thumb. “Dominik can bring the disc forward quickly and he plays hard. That is of course interesting and good for us. ”Especially since German skilled workers with sufficient quality in the defensive department are not exactly flooding the transfer market. Bohac himself let it be known that he was pleased to be on the "right side" from now on,because it was "always very difficult" for him to play in Tölz.
