F Adam Novotný - Mountfield HK, Czechia (Draft 2026)

[czech]

The youngest player in Extraliga juniorů is making serious progress this season. Scores goals in almost every match. Even if his team loses 1:3 or 1:4, the player’s name can still be seen on the score sheet. In the last game he scored 2+1. He also performs well in the Czech national team in 2007.

He is not playing for Budejovice but for Hradec. And he will have his men's debut today which will make him sixth youngest player to play in Czech Extraliga.

 

[dryz]

And he scores in his debut. He is now the youngest scorer in the history of Czech Extraliga beating 22 years old record from Rostislav Olesz.

 

[Pazucha]

Scored in his first shift? He is know the youngest player to ever score in the Czech League.

 

[Czechboy]

Not sure if it's a reflection on Novotny being a great prospect or just a poor men's league but this is impressive!

Any relation to Buffalo's Jiri Novotny of the mid 2000s?

hmm interesting well Adam's birth year is near when Jiri got his ELC money. Couldn't find anything either so asking the board. TY

 

[martygod12]

Scored his first Extraleague goal today, as a 15yrs old.

I am not sure how much space he Is going to get in Hradec, but still an interesting prospect for 2026, even considering his more then a PPG performance in U20 League So far (on the similar pace as Benák and we all know how good he looks)

 

[czech]

He is not playing for Budejovice but for Hradec...

Yes, of course, I've already fixed it. Previously, the Mountfield club was based in Budejovice, which is why it got mixed up.

 

[czech]

He is currently the best sniper in the junior league, being the second youngest player in it.
Nominated to the '06 (U18) national team for the tournament in Switzerland.

Any relation to Buffalo's Jiri Novotny of the mid 2000s?

Was my first thought as well! The time frame seems plausible...

Very common name in Czechia. For me, Jiri Novotny is a football player.

 

[martygod12]

2+2 today and overall 25+16(41pts) in 29games. Still as a fresh 16yrs old playing with kids mostly 2-3 years older. I know that Czech U20 is not a definition of super quality, but still impressive.

I hope he gets some serious ELH time next season.

These are great numbers for U20

 

[czech]

1+2 today. 4 goals in 6 games for u18.
It was not possible to find detailed rosters for all teams, but it appears that Novotny is the only one at the Plymouth tournament heading into the '26 draft.

 

[czech]

He will not be able to compete in the u18-championship because at the end of the season in Extraliga juniorů he will have planned shoulder surgery.

 

[Petes]

Any chance he comes to the OHL next season?

I would guess – and this is only a guess – he’s 100%. That agency sends pretty much all their top Czech prospects to the CHL every year and if he wasn’t a lock I don’t think he’d have gone that early.

Probably not yet. Hradec Králové counts on him in the lineup. It will probably be the case that if he was not satisfied with the workload, then he would want to leave.

 

[Martinez89]

Hey Eliteprospects, don't sleep!
This kid has to be listed as "top prospect" on your site ASAP (and I'm not Czech).

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

2026 is the best Czech draft since 2017.

Novotny, Dravecky, Katolicky, and Novak all likely first rounders I think.

 

[Goodman68]

Novotny, Dravecky, Katolicky, and Novak all likely first rounders I think.

It can easily turn out that way. I was a little disappointed that Novák missed the start of the season in the national team. Katolický looked dominant in those games, I see him as a bit more of a certainty to go in the first round.
Likewise, Novotný looks like a certain first-rounder.
Dravecký is a bit of a mysterious player for me, I expected slightly better performances from him.

 

[martygod12]

First ELH goal this season against Kladno. Shame he got such a limited TOI, but I guess having a full ELH season and maybe score a couple points is still great for a 16 yrs old.

 

[czech]

A week ago, the first goal of the season, and today the first assist didn’t take long to come.
