report from EP draft guide

Jiricek worked mainly defensively, had no problem clearing the defensive zone, and under pressure from forecheckers he was able to bring calm even in a very difficult situation. He used his range again in battles for loose pucks or battles along the boards. His constant scanning minimized the danger in the defensive zone, which was his biggest strength in this game. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide

Brother: Adam Jiříček

Skating is the name of the game. He flows a fluid extension into a clean recovery to impart power and precision to his four-way ability, EPRinkside.com 2021
He can walk the line and get a shot through traffic, or load up an absolute bomb of a one-timer, EPRinkside.com 2021
extremely active defenseman.. doesn’t hesitate when he can activate from the offensive blue line to become a threat from the high slot, Draftin Europe 2020
