Even better. Next 1th round pick from Slovakia.
42 points in 36 games this year for U18 trinec, not bad for a 15 year old.
Has any one seen him actually play? Wouldn't mind knowing a bit more.

I would calm down in case of both Roman and Hrehorcak. I saw them both twice or three times and I don´t think that they are such a great prospects. Definitely not first rounders in my eyes.
wasn't there some Swedish phenom on this site a couple of years ago with killer videos, when does he come up and any updates?
Maybe I will post a thread asking about him.
Adam Tilander?: http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=147733
He first played J18 when he was about 13 years old, played his first SHL game this year. It'd be nice to get an update from those who have seen him this year.
Two words... Jesse Puljujärvi (Check him out)
It is still early in the year and i have not seen some guys yet and there might be some late bdays of 98s that I do not know they are late bdays yet because sometimes scouting sheets just tell me 1998 born so here is my early look at my top 30 players i have seen so far for the 2017 NHL draft.

What a names...Lafontaine, Gilmour, Marozov...
Vesalainen at 36th AND 58th. What a prospect!
The guy does his homework, has a great reputation, puts in the work to get this list together for the benefit of hockey fans, and this is the first reply.
Thanks scoutman1. As always, great of you to share this. Love seeing Nolan Patrick at #1, what a player.
Kostin at 44 and Mittlestadt at 47 are way off from what I've seen. I have both as at least top 15, maybe top 10 or top 5.
only had limited viewing of most euros, im sure he will be rising up my charts as i see him more, when i watched him he was still very raw showed glimpses of being good had a few nice passes when i saw him, jumped on a few loose pucks, seemed to be in the right position most of the time, showed confidence with the puck had good size and IQ...i just have not seen enough of him.Vesalainen at 36. is pretty low, should be top-10.
