Czech Republic
Adam Jiricek
Jiricek is a toolsy and violent defenceman who will need to work on his composure and decision-making pace to reach his lofty potential.
Jakub Vondras
Big goalie with a lot of athleticism. Good amount of upside but needs to learn how to not rely solely on his natural athleticism to make saves.
Martin Misiak
A high-energy winger with above-average awareness and excellent skating, Misiak has a high floor and could grow his playmaking game to unlock second-line upside.
Jakub Dvorak
Dvorak is a raw defenseman who still needs to grow into his large frame, but who could turn into a solid in-zone defender with a consistently strong first-pass.
Michael Hrabal
Big-bodied goaltender who moves fluidly in his crease and reads the play at a high level. Could grow into a quality NHL netminder with further refinement.
Eduard Sale
Offensively gifted winger with great vision and puckhandling skills who can also create and finish his own scoring chances. Needs to continue to round out his off-puck game but has the upside to become a top-six NHL forward.
David Spacek
Strong two-way defenseman who is capable of putting up points but also playing great shutdown defensive hockey.
Patrik Hamrla
Great size and his ability to move within the crease has seriously helped his development. Might be a little capped in his path to the NHL right now but has true 1B starter potential.
Matyas Sapovaliv
Big-bodied playmaker with good vision and puck protection skills. Will need to improve his mobility and processing speed as he matures but has middle-six NHL potential.
Jiri Patera
A raw, long-term project that has shown decent progression in terms of ability in the net.
