LW Jan Mysak - Hamilton Bulldogs, OHL (2020, 48th, MTL, traded to ANA)
- Thread starter alko
- Start date
Signed a four year contract with Litvinov. It seems likely he will start the season in the top 6 with PP time, considering that's where he played all the pre-season games. Impressive for a 16-years old.

Maybe another Top prospect from Czech republic that can make it to Top 3 on the 2020 draft? He seems even better than Zadina. Hope so.
Sorry this might not be the right thread for this but does anyone have a list/ranking of Czech prospects to watch for the 2019 and 2020 drafts? I remember a really nice detailed one was posted for the 2018 draft.
Possibly. Mysak is a centre, so he won't have the same disadvantage Zadina had. I am very curious how will Mysak do in Extraliga. Since 04/05 the best U17 perfomers have been Zacha (38GP 4+4) and Frolik (27GP 3+1).
Assuming you mean the one I did for the 2018 draft - I was planning on making a 2019 draft ranking, but my knowledge on that group is not as deep as I would want it to be in order to make any public ranking. I can tell you Teply and Has are the top Czechs, despite still flying under the radar. Lang, Barinka and Prikryl are some other interesting prospects.
I will definitely make a ranking for the 2020 class though.

Playing first match in Extraliga today. On the 2nd line with Lukeš and Hübl.

Mysak is the only reason that keeps Extraliga somewhat interesting. All the teams ice veteran-heavy squads with next to none juniors. Dull and boring. Anyway great to see Mysak with his 1st point, hopefully first of many.

Yeah, i would like to see more juniors play there aswell. Like, today played only 4 juniors players. (Mysak, Teply, Hladonik and Pytlik). And Pytlik wasnt even on the ice. That annoys me, he is great talent, he deserves to play at least on the 3rd line. But, in my opinion, extraliga is still very interesting.

Jan Myšák just scored his first goal and became the 2nd youngest player in Extraliga history to score a goal.
Myšák´s first goal: video with sound Premiérový gól Jana Myšáka v extralize
His acceleration is already high-end. Just a great skater altogether.

He is the real deal. Love the enthusiasm after that goal. I wish every young prospect got the luxury Necas got/Mysak is getting. Playing in the top 6 with quality veterans, that's the how you develop the top talents. Instead I see the top '01 forwards Teply and Pytlik on the fourth line, 13th forward position respectively.
Anyway, I wonder whether WJC may be a possibilty for Mysak? Probably getting a bit of ahead myself though.

Yeah i feel like these kids would get a priceless experience if they were given more ice-time. I was kind of dissapointed when i read Filip Prikryl would head overseas, pretty sure the Pilsen coaches were ready to give him an opportunity in the top 9 role...

If he is gonna continue like that, then i think that Varada shouldnt pass him, like how many players do we have who are playing in extraliga atleast 13 minutes per game? Galvas? Hladonik maybe? (And when was the last time we had someone like him?)
I dont understand what the coaches are thinking, whats the reason to have a guy like Pytlik as a 13th forward? Its even more sad, that the coach is Jakub Petr, former U20 NT head coach who said, like any other u20 former coach, that the young guys need to play, and now what does he do? Giving a young guy 3:00 TOI. Same with Teplý. now Jenik is coming back to Liberec, so i am looking forward how much TOI he will get.
I am not sure Prikryl is ready for senior hockey. He is physically underdeveloped. Though I was surprised when he chose the QMJHL over the oppurtunity to battle for an Extraliga spot.
Taking an U18 player who needs to play as much as possible for the 13th forward spot is just a sad, sad decision. They should just loan him to the Chance league. I wonder if moving to the OHL is a possibility for Pytlik.
Teply is listed on the 4th line, on average he plays around 8 minutes a game I think. Not ideal by any means, but it could be worse.

Looks like a potential elite prospect - amazing production (best PPG U16 ever, now serious shot to score the most points by U17 in last 25 years considering his role), great skating and overall play.
Mysak with a strong game today, no points, but 5 SOG. A bit more luck and he could have potted a couple. He looks pretty confident for a 16 year old in men league, not afraid to challenge opponent's defensemen. I can't wait to see him at the U17 Challenge, he should be dominant there.

Hmmm, it seems that there is a good chance to make team at WJC. Looking forward how it goes.

Got a primary assist today. 8 games 2+2 so far, not bad.
