What about Miroslav Indrak and his chances for draft? I know Czechexpert was kind of high on him and said he could surprise. Stats wise he had a slow start to the season, then he wasn't playing for a while (injury probably?). Now he's doing pretty good. According to hokej.cz he's just 172 cm tall though.
No chance
hasn´t grown up, not great skater for his size and lacks those special skills necessary for smallish forwards(while having good skills)
What do you people think of Alex Pisarik? How does he compare to Kokes?
Czechexpert has said :
Quote:
Svoboda, Nemecek, Kohout are nothing special, Kokes, Dvorak, Zadrazil and Harkabus are pretty bad, Pisarik can´t skate.
Mandat is promising as he is very talented but doesn´t work hard without the puck.
Anyway, Kokes is in nomination U18 5 nations tournament, feb 6-10. Next 2 defenders will nominated after camp. Pisarik can hope...

Pisarik is much better with puck, his hockey sense is actually fairly solid. But he is knock-knee skater, very slow.
Pisarik is not NHL prospect at all.
Kokes is really afraid of playing with the puck. He has good size, that´s all. Not very physical, average skater(hardly average), ca´t move the puck, nothing.
If I have to say one Czech D than I would mention Lukas Klok from Vitkovice who came basically out of nowhere. Like him, could be late sleeper pick if performing well at international stage.
Daniel Pribyl seems to be breaking out in an important way. Has he been used differently in the last few games? How much ice time does he get? Any on the PP?
Did anyone predict the success of the mass exodus of Czech goalies to the CHL? Did they look as promising back in the Czech Republic as they have shown in North America or have many come out of nowhere? (Bartosak, Machovsky, Polivka, Mrazak etc )

I think almost all of them were consider as ones of best czech goalie prospects that time here in Czech republic already. Well, maybe it was little surprising that Bartosak has been doing THAT good in CHL for example.
But all in all, I wouldn't say "coming out of nowhere" is suited for any of them.

He's been playing mostly in 3rd line. Not sure about PP. I'd say he's getting some but not much.
What about Vojtěch Tomeček? Statistically he is the best forward of HC Energie KV in MHL. He also looked pretty good in WJC (in his limited role and ice-time) and he is just one month and few days away to be eligible for 2013 Draft (for the first time). Do you think he has a chance to be drafted as an overager?
Hi everyone, the U16 recently won a tournament in Russia (8.2 - 10.2.2013) finishing before Sweden, Russia and Finland. I found that pretty impressive. Any serious talent from the guys that won? Any input from guys that are "in the loop" is really welcome!

What are the chances that Jan Stencel gets drafted? Could he become a Kimmo Timonen-like defenseman in the NHL one day? Does he have a good offensive game?

No chance. Hardly average skating ability combined with lack of size(5-9) limits him a lot.
