Really excited to see Sykora out there, think he opens a lot of eyes in this tournament with his style.

Looking forward to watching as many games as possible. Pretty cool we have 7 guys in the tournament. I believe only 2 or 3 teams have more.

Canada scrimmaging Swe tonight, Garand played the first half and stopped all 14 shots. Other guy came in and gave up a quick goal.

Othmann and Cuylle not on either PP unit.

Sykora first line RW, should get lots of ice time. 2nd unit powerplay, and first unit penalty kill.

Great play by Sykora indeed. He had to close in on that D to make that play and did with some authority. Seems like it even surprised the D but definitely lead to the rush that led to the goal. Chemlar's one shift I really did notice, was not great. Long game though.

Good play by Sykora in the defensive zone leads to a goal. Should get an assist.

Jaroslav Chmelař and Adam Sýkora playing RW if anyone needs evidence in a couple years.

Undrafted players can be signed until October 1st, after that they have to re-enter the draft.

Yeah, I wasn't sure if he touched the puck or not, but he made the play that caused the other player to lose it.

The stat tracking is always suspect at these tournaments though. I've been watching the score sheet. they gave Nemec and assist on the 2nd goal, then changed it to the 1st goal, and now there are no assist on either goal. So they still might add Sykora at some point. Who knows.

Sykora is really good along the boards and defensively. That is good to see.

so I would think Sykora was drafted to be RW, but didn’t he play center in the Czech League?

He does have a bit of a Callahan feel too him yeah. Wow the replay was even worst, what a gutsy bastard lol. Right to the nuggets but made the play and made sure for the puck to clear before getting back to bench.

These guys couldn't call a # and identify a right name to save their life.
Great set up but no Finnish by the Czech team at the end.

Will Kaslik be UFA or have to be drafted in 23? Having a teammate of Sykora in the organization can’t hurt and is a winger with skill.
