Draft-eligible D Radim Mrtka (6'6",198lbs), who is expected to be selected in the first round, has joined the Thunderbirds after playing in 3 different tiers of hockey in Czechia so far this season. Despite having to adjust to playing in North America on one of the worst teams in the WHL, he has so far put up 10gp/2g/6a/8pts,+3, 10 PIM. Very impressive. Strangely enough, he is already tied for 2nd in D scoring on the T-Birds.
