Prospect scouting report: Andrej Doskočil from HC Brezno in CSHL

The strengths of Andrej are clear very quickly: even at 6'0, he is a fairly big body and he has learned to use it well while checking. He seems to understand the game well, showcasing high hockey IQ, with great passing skills. Afterall, the interview showcased that Andrej is naturally a bright young man, fairly humble, with true passion for the game, and clearly trying to play as clean as possible for his role. Don't mistake this for being soft though; if needed, he will be the first to defend his teammate. By his own words, he feels strong loyalty to his team and his teammates are his family, "and you don't let your family get hurt". 

The weaknesses are fairly clean aswell. His shot, while having decent strenght, is just not having the necessary accuracy, seems to be a mistake in development from his previous team. His skating isn't particularly great either, and while not a detriment, it is an area where he can vastly improve. I am not quite convinced by his puck handling either - he uses a very unconventional curve, seems like something influenced by a weird equipment choice while he was younger. There is a concern this might influence the ceiling of his development, where this will influence his ability to improve, while being impossible to relearn him to a more conventional stick.
