Miscellaneous: Was released to NHL by Czechoslovakian authorities after
1981-82 season, making him a strong prospect for the 1982 draft despite his
advanced age. The NHL ruled he would have to enter the league through the
1982 Entry Draft rather than through a special draft for Czechoslovakian
players as had been the case with two players released to the NHL one year
earlier. |
