Mysak spent the first portion of his season playing in the Czech Republic and put up pedestrian numbers, but he made an immediate impact when he moved to the OHL. The 18-year-old is a crafty offensive winger with strong instincts that help create scoring chances for himself and his teammates.
What they're saying
"The left-shot forward plays a smart game with smooth hands and a quick release," said NHL.com's Mike Morreale in March.
