Then he jumped to Sparta Praha and got 13 goals 30 pts in 43 games... Using your logic the Oilers should be looking to see If he has Chemistry with Hall-Drasitl .... he should be good for 30-40 NHL pts.
A journeyman NHLer Sobotka was a ppg player in that league. It would be great if Pribyl turns out to be close to Sobotka.... a hard to play against bottom 6 that can chip in with 20-30 pts.

Good assessment, and I think it's realistic. I expect Pribyl to start in Stockton and get called up later in the season. He needs to adjust to smaller ice, bigger and faster players, and North American life.
