Jan Myšák was considered by many scouts to be a first-round prospect heading into this year’s draft. After being called up to his hometown club, HC Litvinov, and becoming a regular in the Extraliga throughout last fall, he gained further prominence by transferring over to the Ontario Hockey League to play for the Hamilton Bulldogs from the start of this calendar year.
Playing with and against his own age group on a team led by Los Angeles Kings’ prospect Arthur Kaliyev proved to be beneficial for Myšák, who was averaging over a point per game when the OHL was shut down the March 23.
