Dalibor Dvorsky, Servac Petrovsky, Filip Mesar, and Martin Misiak are all doing big things for Slovakia at the World Juniors, as they are off to a 3-0 round robin record.
Dalibor Dvorsky (SBY), Servac Petrovsky (OS), Filip Mesar (KIT), & Martin Misiak (ER) are all off to successful starts at the World Juniors with Slovakia, who has been dominant thus far.
Slovakia is off to a 3-0 record thus far, beating Czechia, Switzerland, and Norway.
Their four forwards from the OHL sure haven't been taking a backseat in this tournament, each with 3 or more points through 3 games.
Owen Sound forward and Slovakia's first line centre — Servac Petrovsky has been off to a red-hot start. He leads the tournament in points with 8, including four today against Norway. His shot release and offensive vision have been on full display.
On his wing, Filip Mesar has been having an impressive tournament of his own. He has six assists through three games, and has been dishing flashy passes left-and-right.
The Montreal Canadiens have a good one with the purely-skilled winger, and Mesar has been just as dominant with Kitchener in the OHL.
Scoreless through the first two games, Dalibor Dvorsky had his first standout performance against Norway. He also had four points, as the 10th overall pick finally broke the ice.
Since coming over to North America, Dvorsky hasn't skipped a beat.The Sudbury Wolves' first line centre has been playing alongside fellow top NHL draft picks David Goyette and Quentin Musty in the OHL.
Dvorsky has been known for his two-way game, but also his lethal shot. On his second goal against Norway, he stunned the opposing goalie with his shot power.
The 1st overall pick in the CHL Import Draft hasn't been missing out on the fun either. Martin Misiak has three helpers through three games, playing a bottom-six role for Slovakia.
His speed and high-tempo game makes him a perfect fit for a bottom-six role, and he has been effective for Slovakia thus far. Misiak plays a top-six role with Erie in the OHL, but this tournament is an opportunity for him to showcase his utility.
Slovakia's team just keeps rolling, and these four current OHL forwards have all had their fingerprints on this tournament. They face the USA on New Years Eve, which will determine whether or not they clinch the top spot in their division.
