Forward Martin Nečas of the Colorado Avalanche has become the winner of the 58th edition of the Golden Hockey Stick poll for the best Czech hockey player of the season. The 27-year-old player won the award for the first time in his career, finishing ahead of David Pastrňák, who has dominated the poll eight times, in the final standings. isport.cz ↗
Nečas thus ended Pastrňák's streak and became the new holder of the most prestigious individual award in Czech hockey. Pastrňák finished second this year, while Tomáš Hertl took third place. According to available information, this was only the second time in the past ten years that the Golden Hockey Stick has not gone to Pastrňák. In 2022, he was beaten in the poll by Ondřej Palát. irozhlas.cz ↗
The result followed a season in which Nečas was the most productive Czech player in the NHL. He received the award as a Colorado player, where he ranks among the most prominent Czech faces of the North American league. Goaltenders also placed high in the poll, with Jakub Dobeš — who had a standout season in Montreal — among the players mentioned. idnes.cz ↗
The Golden Hockey Stick has been awarded since 1969, when defenseman Jan Suchý was its first recipient. This year's edition confirmed a change at the top of Czech hockey, as after years of Pastrňák's dominance, Nečas took over the top prize. Further developments will show whether his victory marks the start of a longer period of new rivalry among Czech NHL stars. irozhlas.cz ↗
