Michal Handzus was thanked in a statement by HC Banksa Bystrica upon his exit from the team.
The club thanked him for coming over to play without compensation or any other costs while taking care of his own insurance. "Michal their performance on the ice as well as the overall gaming action in the cabin greatly help the team and not just for the sports page, and proved to be Banskobystričanom all your soul," said the team in shaky but touching Google translation. In 19 games in the Slovak Extraliga, Handzus posted nine goals and 10 assists.
