Nabbed by Dallas in Round 2
Vanecek was the 59th overall pick by Dallas in the 2026 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Vanecek made the move to North America this past season, joining WHL Tri-City. He led a poor Americans team in scoring among rearguards (14 goals and 35 points in 59 games), seeing a ton of playing time in all situations. He finished the year with a strong showing (five points in seven games) for Czechia at the World U18. At 6-foot-2, 195 pounds, Vanecek has plenty of size and mobility. If you think the offense will translate to the professional ranks, he probably should have been in the first-round discussion, especially in this draft. Vanecek is a quality prospect.
