Adam Novotny's Player Profile

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - December 10th: "He's not a high-end scorer, but he has good enough sense to make plays at higher levels. Novotny is competitive and can play in traffic, although he's not overly physical. He projects as a middle-six winger."

Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - December 8th: "His speed and transition ability stand out immediately, flying around the ice at will at times. Novotny has shown much better defensive engagement as the season has gone along. His play in the hard areas around the net and along the boards looks great on some shifts and lacks engagement on others."

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - December 1st: "He’s a powerful winger who possesses a fantastic release. He shoots the puck accurately and with authority. I appreciate how Novotny uses his strength to leverage and extend plays along the boards and working off the cycle."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - November 19th: "The Peterborough Petes don’t have a ton of high-end weapons, but Novotný has consistently found ways to get high-volume opportunities on net. Novotný is clearly comfortable playing in North America, and I’d expect him to get better with more confidence."

Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - November 19th: "On his best nights, Novotny touches many parts of the game. He shows grit and compete, but also plenty of skill and creativity. He skates well enough to disrupt the opponent all over the ice and, as a result, is a good transitional player."

Smaht Schouting - November 9th: "He’s a hardworking, energetic forward who skates well and plays an intelligent and reliable two-way game. He has a pro frame and strong physical tools which have allowed him to already play a full season of professional hockey in Czechia before his draft year."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - Nov. 5th: "Novotny’s a 6-1, pro-built winger who skates well (though his stride can look a little short and there's room for development there). He’s also highly skilled offensively and plays the game with confidence. He’s already strong, sturdy and stocky."
