Jan Bednar Facts

Drafted: 2020 round 4 #107 overall by Detroit Red Wings
Agency: Premium

His athleticism and raw toolkit are among the best in the class. He'll post high-flying, free-wheeling saves with windmilled gloves and lunging splits that will wow the crowd and get the job done. There's no save too out of reach for Bednar to make and no contortion he's not willing to attempt to knock the puck away from the crease. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
