Grigory Dukor / USA Today Sports
Several NHL clubs are reportedly saying, "Czech, please."
Jan Rutta is weighing multiple offers to come to North America, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
The Edmonton Oilers are among the Canadian teams showing interest, but Dreger doesn't believe they've submitted an offer.
Rutta is a 26-year-old defenseman who has been representing his country at the World Championship, and collected 32 points in 46 games with Pirati Chomutov in the Czech league this past season.
