Considering this statement and the quote on your profile i guess you know him pretty well and you have seen him play so...what about describing the player he is?
Frolik is a great skater, and he has sensational hands. He is one player that can 'actually' stickhandle through a phonebooth. His hockey sense is one of his unsung assets, as he has the vision that only a few are blessed with. He can make even the most challenging of plays look easy, and is a strong, strong player with the puck, and without it. He has his head screwed on right, and he knows what he wants from hockey - to play to the best of his abilities, all the time.
Infact, when Jagr (yes) was playing for Kladno, he asked the coach to put Frolik on his line because he was so impressed with the kid.
Frolik is one of those guys that will make you go wow everytime he's on the ice, but he also has the maturity to not let the attention he 'will' receive go to his head. He's not just a electrifying player, he is so much more.
In my mind, he has no weaknesses in his game but some may see him passing off the puck to his teammates instead of shooting it, as a weakness. However, I just see it as a sign of a player that isn't selfish with the puck, and is confident enough in his abilities, as he rarely misses a pass.
It is likely that Frolik won't receive the attention he deserves until he plays his first NHL game, but make no mistake.... this kid is as talented (at the least) as the guy that receives all the hype - Crosby.
