We had to wait until pick 78 to see a Slovak name (gone gone are the times of the early 2000s when some Gáborík was 3rd pick :wacko:)...

 

surprisingly it was not Chromiak who is :SVK top pick this year but the honor goes to our talented blueliner Samuel Kňažko selected by the Columbus Blue Jackets

 

 

this draft is getting more and more a "Caporetto" for Slovak Hockey...

 

I'm a bit distracted (I'm following the MLB playoffs), but if I haven't missed someone, Knazko is the only Slovak picked so far (and  we are at no.106 :yikes:)...:(

Anyway here you have all Slovak drafted players.

 

Last year we had also only one...in 2012 or 2016 none https://sk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slovenskí_hokejisti_draftovaní_NHL

So, in this bizarre 2020 year we had the NHL Draft 1st round last night in historic online version

 

As expected :CAN had the most drafted players among the first 31 picks with 19 players ! followed by 4 :RUS and 2 guys from :USA:SWE and :GER  and 1 player from both :FIN and :AUT

 

As expected the most selected were the centers 13 ! The clubs also picked 4 defencers and only 1 goalie (the Russian Iaroslav Askarov picked by Nashville as 11th overall pick)

 

 

Sadly but as expected no :SVK nor :CZE player were picked in the opening round this year...however :SVK chances to have some drafted guys also this year are quite realistic in the remaining 6 rounds (2nd to 7th) this evening from 18:30 CEST

(rumors mentioning especially the likes of GK Samuel Hlavaj, DEF Samuel Kňažko and Marko Stacha or FW Martin Chromiak (should be definitely be our 1st this years pick) and Oliver Okuliar ?

I am a bit disappointed/surprised that Stützle wasn’t drafted 2nd overall (especially because Marco Sturm is a coach for the Los Angeles Kings) and that Peterka wasn’t drafted in the first round. It would have been crazy for Germany to have more guys than the US/Sweden drafted in the first round. Between 2000 and 2017 Germany only had 2 first round picks (Goc was the 20th pick in 2001 and Draisaitl was the 3rd pick in 2014), but in the last 3 years Germany had 4 first round pick (two of them were top 6 picks). Overall a pretty good year for Germany when it comes to ice hockey ...
 

Personally I would have picked Rossi ahead of Holtz, I also think that Askarov should have been picked earlier.

 

Edit: Peterka was picked 34th by the Buffalo Sabres. Also there were 8! swedish players picked in the 2nd round, their depth is just crazy.

Finally someone drafted Martin Chromiak. Surprising he was not drafted in earlier rounds though. 128th is really too low for him, This guy is one heck of talent. Clearly our most talented 2002 class

 

Should be a good prospect for LA Kings

yep, so far (middle of 5th round) behind the top powerhouses 46x :CAN 17x :SWE 10x :FIN 18x :RUS and 34x :USA

 

we have players from 5 other countries drafted right now. 138 players drafted at the moment  5x :CZE (48,99, 107, 110 and 136), 3x :GER (3, 17 and 34 :bowdown:) 2x :AUT (9, 104) and :SVK (78, 128) and 1x :GBR (56)

Switzerland for sure is a bit disappointing, but I guess all countries except the big five have off-years like that. This year Germany should have had 3 first round picks and next year Germany probably won’t have a single guy drafted (at least not in the first 3 rounds).

So, quick recap. Only 2 slovaks from the 2002 class are drafted (quite disappointing for kids like Hlavaj, Okuliar or Stacha but it is how it is) the only 2 drafted are Samuel Kňažko and Martin Chromiak.

 

All in all the clubs picked

 

71x :CAN

52x :USA

32x :SWE

23x :RUS

17x :FIN

8x :CZE (Highest pick number 48 - Jan Myšák)

3x :AUT (9, 104, 161) :GER (3, 17 and 34)

2x :BLR (162, 205) :SVK (78, 128)

1x :GBR (56) :LAT (149) :NOR (145)

 

The biggest surprise definitely is to see no player was drafted from :SUI this year

 

62 Centers

61 Defensemens

37 Right Wings

36 Left Wings

20 GK

 

The first pick Alexis Lafreniere :CAN by NY Rangers and last drafted was as 217th Declan McDonnell :USA by Tampa Bay

First European drafted was Tim Stuetzle :GER as 3rd overall pick by Ottawa Senators, last European to get drafted was :CZE Jakub Konečný as 216th by Buffalo Sabres.

 

 

Highest picks by rounds:

1st round :CAN 19 (worth mention all 3 :GER picks were 1st and early 2nd round picks, not really surprising for guys like Peterka, Stutzle and Reichel)

2nd Round :USA 9 followed by 7x :SWE , First :CZE pick and the :GBR Tristen Robbins first British to get drafted since Liam Kirk in 2018

3rd Round 10x :CAN followed by 9x :USA (First :SVK pick of the year with Samuel Kňažko beng selected by Columbus)

4th Round 11x :USA

5th Round 9x :USA (only picks for :LAT and :NOR ) 2nd and last this year draft :SVK Martin Chromiak as 128th by Los Angeles Kings

6th Round 13x :CAN first pick for :BLR

7th Round 9x :CAN followed by 8 picks for :SWE and :USA

 

Highest drafted by positions:

GK: Iaroslav Askarov :RUS by Nashville Predators as 11th

DEF: Jake Sanderson :USA by Ottawa Senators as 5th

LW: Alexis Lafreniere :CAN by NY Rangers as 1st overall pick

C: Quinton Byfield :CAN by LA Kings as 2nd

RW: Alexander Holtz :SWE by New Jersey Devils as 7th.

It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind , 
    • The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.
    • I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
