Slovakian wing who is in first North American season in the QMJHL after an excellent season in Sweden's J20 Superelite with Malmo. Then followed it up with an eye-opening World Junior Under-17. A very agile East-West skater who has excellent jump and a very good shot. His actually skating is average, and there may be a lack of hockey smarts and vision. But the ability to shoot is his strength. This season with a weaker St. John team he struggled but still managed 22 goals / 46 points in 60 games. However, he also was sat out when he looked like he was give less than the best when teams rolled up scores on his putrid team. I think there is enough there for some team to take a chance that there is a player they can develop.
