Scouting Report
The left-shooting defenseman from Czechia can make a good first pass and line up on either side of the ice, but he is more of a facilitator than a play driver. He is not an especially great skater and tends to lack the agility needed to evade opposing forecheckers. Though he is not especially physical in his own zone, he has a quick stick for breaking up plays.
Long Range Potential: Depth defenseman.
