A small blurb on Horak on CBC this afternoon:

http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/opin...bbotsford.html

Quote:
Horak was a Rangers fifth-round pick in 2009. He popped up on the Flames radar screen every time then Calgary director of player personnel Duane Sutter or special assistant to the GM Craig Conroy checked in on Flames prospect Ryan Howse with the Chilliwack Bruins. Horak and Howse played on the same line and it was hard not to notice their chemistry and Horak's play.

"[Horak] was a good all-around player who lacked strength, so we thought with time to develop physically he could turn into an NHL prospect," Flames director of amateur scouting Tod Button said. "His hockey sense and work ethic were his best attributes."
