Poběžal is undersized but never outmatched, this aggressive forechecker finishes his checks, gets under opponents’ skin, and scores at the net front. He’s light on his feet, has access to his outside edges, and has some quickness behind his first steps. He has a knack for getting open for rebounds and deflections, but also shows finesse as a finisher, capable of picking corners from up close and shooting from his inside leg. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
