Fantasy Summary
Massive winger with solid puck protection tools and composure. The skills and skating hold him back, but should become a solid third-line checking forward.

March 2025 – The St.Louis Blues signed Jecho to a three-year entry-level contract on March 25, 2025. Mark Henry
July 2024 – Jecho was selected 95th overall by the St.Louis Blues. Mark Henry
April 2024 – Adam Jecho is a challenging read. He’s a 6’5 pivot but doesn’t dominate the game as you’d like. He has a hard shot that he uses to create quality looks, good puck protection, and a solid transition game for his size, but his lack of vision, dynamism, and ability to create for his teammates severely impacts his offensive ceiling. He has the tools for it, but he doesn’t break up plays, win on the forecheck, or have the speed on pucks to be considered a defensive center. A selection in the first two rounds is a bet on his physical tools coming together to form a more cohesive, two-way game. Luke Sweeney

February 2024 – Adam Jecho, a Czech national playing for the WHL’s Edmonton Oil Kings, has been a much-talked-about prospect, with some even pushing for him in the early first round. There’s certainly a lot to like. For starters, he’s 6’5 and 200+ pounds, near a point-per-game with solid but not spectacular skills. Jecho doesn’t play with much creativity, but he has some skill. While many of his skills are good for a player his size, they don’t stand out in a big way. His shot is hard with a quick release, but he’s not a long-distance sniper. While his puckhandling, touch, and puck protection are all solid, he doesn’t create much with his passing. Jecho’s limited ability to create offense for himself and diminished ability to do so for others drives him down our list. His size, skill, and poised play could make him a decent NHL contributor lower in the lineup, but at this stage, an impact top-sixer seems unlikely. Luke Sweeney
February rankings: 54th
