What a pleasure it has been watching these guys all year.. insane chemistry! Growing up Bergy was always my "favorite" but the guy I watched to model my own game after was always Krejci.. I truthfully didn't expect him to return.. but I have to say I never doubted that if he DID return he'd still have his magic.. and so it is.
I think David krejci is the most underrated player in the NHL in the last 25 years He does the all little thing so well and smooth I'm glad he came back home 🐻
@@davidbarton1806 krejci is so smooth , slows the play and one of the best play makers , he hits another level in playoffs gonna be fun to watch that line come monday!! LFG , WE WANT THE CUP!!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!! WE WANT THE CUP!!!!
Wow man, I've never resonated with a comment so much in my life. As a high schooler playing hockey, I was the same way. I modeled my game after Krejci. Skilled, good vision, and trying to slow the game down. I played center too. This has been a magical year watching these three Czechs score so many highlight reel goals. Cheers, Go B's
This season, it took Zacha and Pastrňák a long time to warm up with each other for some reason this year, especially without krejci. However, lately they have been on fire together the last 10 games and finally they are able to starting to look amazing again together.
I hear almost everywhere that zacha grew only because he plays with players like pastrnak but its pastrnak that breaks records because of zacha . That guy has incredible eyes.
Devils fan here: Zacha has always had his flashes of greatness with us. Great eyes, great 2 way game and once in a while he would just snipe it or pull off a filthy deke. It was more a case of lacking confidence with him (from coaching staff but also from himself i would guess) plus his linemates were never of as good quality as Pasta and Krejci are. Sucks that he's breaking out with another team, but I'm so happy that he can prove his doubters wrong finally. Plus Haula works very well for us at the moment so I can't be too sad😎
@@espressodepresso8294Zacha seemed like wrong place wrong time as a Devil. You guys took him high as a center and then a few years after took more centers. Not saying he’s better than Hughes or Hischier at all but he was buried on the depth chart
Every once in while there's some NHL Team with pack of Czech's in late 90s early 2000's Penguins,then again in 2000s Rangers and now Bruins. For us is only bad ,that if Bruins wont get knock out of the Stanley cup ,we gonna miss all of those guys at Ice Hockey World Cup 😄
In my opinion, the order of the best hockey players in Czech hockey history is as follows: Jágr + Hašek, Pastrňak + Eliáš, Hejduk. However, the 70s generation was also great en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1976_Canada_Cup. There was also an excellent hockey generation just after the Second World War, it was eliminated by the communists. It is also an interesting historical fact that the Czechs entered the IIHF under the name Bohemia even before the creation of Czechoslovakia. The Czech intelligentsia demanded at least the same autonomy within Austria-Hungary as Hungary had, but the Germans living in our country opposed this. So the Czechs from Prague successfully represented the Bohemia at the European Championship, the Germans from Prague represented Austria.
