The next day after the disaster, the winner of the Stanley Cup, the most famous and most valuable hockey trophy in the world, helped cover the roof with a tarpaulin and cleared the debris.

He won the Stanley Cup, takes a nice amount of money, so he could easily send a larger amount of money and have peace of mind.
No, Michal Kempný takes off his shirt, climbs to the roof and goes to help in person.
Excellent hockey player and man. ???? pic.twitter.com/Vrmyyto4nx

The defender of the Washington Capitals was just in Prague when news of the natural disaster began to spread.
–
“My mom sent me a video of a tornado rushing around our house. Fortunately, we missed it, but others were not so lucky. The next morning, I immediately got in the car and went to help, “Kempný described to Práva.
–
It never occurred to him that he would only send financial aid for a second. He knew that in his native region, now so severely tested, he had to put his hand to the work himself.

“With the boys I know there, we called and started helping where needed. We started from acquaintances at our house, we managed and covered the roof, the next day we were in Mikulčice, it was perhaps even worse there, the main street actually ceased to exist there, “he shuddered at the sight of unimaginable destruction.
–
He himself admitted that he had to deal with such a tragedy in a complicated way. “It hit me the most on the first day of my arrival. We have the Lužák pond, I used to go towards my grandfather and uncle. It was beautiful there, around the forest. Now there is a bare, ruined plain, it was a really difficult moment for me, “he said.
–
Two days before the tornado, a strong storm swept through Lusatia, uprooting several trees in the garden of the Kempný house.
–
“My mother had a ruined crop, we had to clear the trees. But contrary to what has come, it’s just a small thing. I don’t know if the storm was a harbinger of a tornado. Our family was actually very lucky, “he thought.

Kempný did not want to hear the praise for his immediate help. “Everyone would do that. I just felt I had to put my hand to the work. When I saw it all and heard people’s stories, it was really terrible, “he added.
