As rumored. Hopefully.its a hidden gem.type deal, but if not, he should help GR, especially if they have a few graduations to the big club next year.
Guys we’re making moves!
Kidding
I hope he’s the one Euro league signing that actually pans out in some way
REBUILD IS OVER
Depth for GR right now, but we need more young wingers. I like that we are being proactive. Hope the kid crushes it.
I’m excited to see Swedeman Euopeansson in GR. Anyone what to bet on if he’ll be more or less impactful than Brome?

Jakub Rychlovský’s stock is skyrocketing at a rate that is sure to generate some attention overseas as a free agent of interest. The progress is undeniable, from one point in 13 contests in the 2019-20 season to 45 points in 50 games just four seasons later. He’s now the youngest player in Czech Extraliga history to win the scoring title, scoring in the season finale to give him 26 goals on the season, one better than the previous record-holder, Dominik Kubalík.
His nickname is “Rychlík,” and it’s a fitting one. The translation on it is “speed,” and that’s one of the dominant features of his game. He’s an intelligent, instinctual scorer with a flair for showing up big and scoring goals. NHL teams are right to have interest in Rychlovský.
