Throughout his young hockey career, Adam Ruzicka has been a lot of things. He’s been a projected lottery pick, a future power forward, the hope for Slovak hockey, a projected late first, a gigantic disappointment, the potential steal of the draft, and everything in between those extremes. He has yet to turn 19.
Ruzicka has been a confusing prospect ever since he landed in the OHL last year. On some nights, he could be pure dynamite, making professional moves with ease and embarrassing those who stood in his way. On other nights, he could look the exact opposite of that.
