Bump.
Any updates on Kopi's brother? Has he had his start with Portland yet?
His stats are definately not that impressive. Here's a more notable Slovenian player.

Kopitar will play for Slovenia in France at the IIHF U-20 Division I Tournament later this month.

wow. Almost 4 years younger than the eldest player.Holy crap - I think the most notable thing about the Slovenian roster is that a late '93 goalie made the squad, which is full of '90s and '91s...

Gašper Kopitar. That is a freaking cool hockey name. That's all I've got. Shrug.
Don't forget that the team hasn't even scored a goal yet. I wouldn't put it all on him, but I have never seen him play so I don't know if he's a game changer or not.

I honestly don't see him getting drafted... He was hyped for the name.
Kinda Jonathan Toews/David Toews and Alex Tanguay/Maxime Tanguay
"tsert snoy" or so.crt snoj is an awesome name
