Czech Superliga is the same league Dominik Hasek, Jaromir Jagr, Jiri Hudler, Michael Frolik were from. It's not a random league, it's one of the better European leagues after the KHL and SHL. IIRC it's considered a better league than the Swiss league and not far behind the FEL. But yes it's definitely nice to have the scouts discover an NHLer outside of North America. Our Euro scouts are usually pretty bad.
