Czech Republic
Jiří Felcman
A big center who moves well. Knows how to use his body in front of the net, screening goaltenders and deflecting shots. Needs to develop his all-around 200-foot game.
Matej Pekar
Though lacks the high-end skill usually asked of smaller players, makes up for it with high-end work-rate and defensive presence.
Adam Benak
Truly tiny but undeniably talented, Benak's speed and playmaking will have to be on full display if he is to successfully traverse his long road to the NHL.
Max Psenicka
A big righty with shutdown tendencies, the Czech import entrenched himself as an invaluable piece to his team's playoff run.
Jiri Kulich
Solid two-way center with good size and skating ability. Makes good reads in the offensive zone but needs to continue to add strength to his frame.
Maxmilian Curran
Intelligent playmaking center who can exploit gaps and work the cycle down low. Needs to work on both his physical pace.
Marek Alscher
Big, physical defense-minded defenseman who does not score often but shows promise in transition. He could become a bottom-pairing type at the NHL level.
Petr Sikora
A skilled playmaking two-way center who plays like a power forward agitator. Has a high motor and is a strong puck handler with good hands.
Dominik Badinka
Poised, mobile two-way defenseman with great retrieval and breakout ability. Work on his handling skill and ability to work the blue line could see him become a do-it-all top-four defenseman.
