Jaroslav Chmelar

Huge Czech right winger who played in Finland for Jokerit and has all the tools to eventually develop into a goal scoring power winger. At this juncture we haven't seen a finished product that goes into the corners bodying defenders off pucks or owning the traffic areas. When he does play a much more aggressive game in the attack zone, he becomes and effective and sometimes dominant player to contend with. He has all the size, skill and tools to take a jump in development. He is a long strider that uses a long stick and his reach to his advantage and he can generate the speed to go end to end. Possesses a hard backhander and get maximum torque when he litchis wrist shot go. Could be more creative and more aggressive. but time isn his side.
