Default Spits new Czech recruit surprised by welcome

The Czech defenceman, who only arrived Sunday, was walking downtown with teammate Marek Biro when the pair was recognized.

"The biggest surprise since I've been here was walking downtown and fans recognizing us and saying hi," said Jordan, who requires Biro to translate English for him while he learns the language.

"I learned junior hockey in this town is much more popular than in the Czech Republic."
Welcome to Canada, Michal.

He played last season for HC Hame Zlin, and for the Czech National Team in the under-18 tourney in Finland. The Spits coach says NHL scouts feel he's ranked in the top 60-100 skaters among other 17-year-olds. He's 6'1", and 180lbs, chosen 8th overall.

Let's see what he can do.
