Pavel Zacha is a center who hails from the Czech Republic and played this past season with the OHL's Sarnia Sting. Zacha arrived in North America this season after working his way up to the pros in the Czech leagues before that. After reaching the top professional league in the Czech Republic as just a 16 year-old, Zacha established himself as a highly coveted prospect, leading to him being selected first overall in the CHL import draft. There was some question of whether Zacha would make the move to North America at first, with agent/Zacha's adviser Allan Walsh going so far as to say Sarnia "wasted their pick," Just over a month later, though, Zacha's transition to Canadian juniors was confirmed.
