If you're not a native speaker you likely wont ever get the ř sound, so just treat it like a normal r and you'll be fine. It's def not a z.

I'm not a Czech speaker and can pronounce his name just fine.

 

[NHL Dude 120]

What's his contract situation like?

 

[Preposterone]

Love his stick skills. He seems like a Stevie special

 

[pgfan66]

What's his contract situation like?

Signed through next season according to EliteProspects but I’m 99.9% sure he has a North American out-clause both for the WHL, where he could still go at some point this season, and the NHL/AHL once he’s drafted.

 

[OregonCanuck]

Going to be a top 3 pick

Ah ok I'd probably let him spend another year in the Czech Republic and then come over to North America.

Nice assist tonight while being tripped down,

David Jiricek, between the 10th and 15th pick:

DLB repêchage LNH 2022 David Jiricek/ NHL draft - Dans La Bande !

 

[WeThreeKings]

He's either the first or 2nd defenseman off the board and he will go in the top 10.

 

[Goldenhands]

He's either the first or 2nd defenseman off the board and he will go in the top 10.

Top 5 100%, top 3 likely.

 

[NotProkofievian]

Very good game from Jiricek, despite being -2 and not scoring, he was extremely active at both ends of the rink in every period.

Some of his plays (mostly O-zone)

Omg, what a shift to start that video.

 

[Chird Ferguson]

Screw Sanderson, I want Jiricek

 

[TheCrease]

Nice assist tonight while being tripped down,

Great read jumping in deep there

 

[Johnny97]

5th of the season, nice moves

What NHL player you can compare with David Jiricek?

He can have the same impact of Makar, Heiskanen, Dahlin, Fox?

He has definitely their upside at least offensively. Reminds me of Makar somehow.

He's definitely not such an equilibrist on skates like Makar. But for his great figure certainly a very mobile, physical defender with good offensive abilities. Maybe Seider is a good comparison.

Dahlin isnt having a huge impact right now

But Seider is in tier of his own, he is better than Makar, Heiskanen and Fox and he is 2-3 years youger...

Stylistically, the way he moves around the ice, i'd say a young Aaron Ekblad. His offensive potential is as good as anybody's, defensively he still has a lot to work on.

Now i think about it, a prime Brent Burns is a great example of what you could potentially get with Jiricek, imo.
