There it held the left catcher for only one season and he went to Chimik Moskowskaya Oblast in 2005 , where he had to accept an average of only 2.11 goals per game and reached sixth place with the team in the final standings. After moving to HC Sparta Prague , Salfický won his first Czech championship in 2007 and played in the IIHF European Champions Cup .
After Salfický had spent the 2007/08 season with the Russian newly promoted Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod , he was signed by the Czech second division club HC Slovan Ústečtí Lvi , for whom he has played since then. At the end of the 2008/09 season he won the championship of the 1st league with the eagles from Ústí nad Labem , but failed in the relegation for the extra league at BK Mladá Boleslav .
The following season he began at Ústí, before he was loaned to HC Plzeň in October 2009 to replace the injured Tomáš Pöpperle . This loan was continued in the following season, and Salfický also received assignments at HC Litomerice . The 2011/12 season he started again at HC Litomerice, before he was loaned to HC Karlovy Vary in November 2011 , where he made 24 extra league appearances. At the end of the season, the loan contract was then transferred to HC Pardubice, who signed him for the 2012/13 season.
