Slovak forward Pavol Regenda is getting closer to returning to action. On Friday, he was spotted at the San Diego Gulls practice.

The 24-year-old native of Michaloviec has not played since November 29 due to a lower body injury he suffered in the match against Texas. His condition was assessed on a weekly basis.

The injury came at a bad time for Regenda, as he was approaching a chance in Anaheim’s first team in the NHL with his performances. In the first 17 games, he collected 13 points, but ten of them were goals.

San Diego did not say when Regenda might return to action. The team was scheduled to play Friday and Saturday, but its games in Bakersfield were postponed by the league due to a technical malfunction in the arena. The next scheduled game was Wednesday at Coachella Valley Ice.

Adam Ružička (photo: X/Calgary Flames)

Calgary Hockey Now’s Trevor Neufeld pointed out four Calgary Flames players who have struggled in December. He didn’t even get past both Slovak attackers.

The overseas author first devoted himself to Dillon Dube and Jonathan Huberdeau. According to him, the other two players do not fall into the same category, because their roles in the team are not so prominent and it is possible that their statistics are also affected by injuries.

As the third, he mentioned Adama Ružička, who was only a healthy substitute in the last match.

“After Jimmy Vesey’s questionable hit from Rangers on October 24, Slovak Adam Ružička struggled dramatically to find consistency. The 24-year-old has one goal and four assists in 23 games since the incident, and only three assists in 11 December matches,” noted Neufeld.

At the end of the overview, Martin Pospíšil figured, although he can get under the opponent’s skin, but lately his offensive productivity has stopped.

“It would be understandable if the former third-round draft pick hadn’t already proven that she was capable of scoring goals. Pospíšil debuted in the NHL in style, scoring three goals and two assists in the first seven games. “Four of those five points gave the Flames the lead or tied the game,” Neufeld said.

“Since then? An amazing goal against Florida on December 18th and a secondary assist on Nazem Kadri’s touchdown against the Golden Knights on December 12th. Two points in his last 16 games is not a good enough pace for him to maintain his position in the top six of the attack for a long time.

Šimon Nemec (photo: X/New Jersey Devils)

Slovak defenseman Šimon Nemec is no longer the Slovak representative in the ranking of the 200 best NHL players from the point of view of fantasy play, which is published by the official website of the NHL.

The nineteen-year-old native of Liptovský Mikuláš dropped out of the ranking, in which he occupied 183rd place just last week.

It is headed by Connor McDavid, Nikita Kučerov, Nathan MacKinnon, David Pastrňák, Jack Hughes, Leon Draisaitl, William Nylander, Quinn Hughes, Elias Pettersson and Artemij Panarin.

The German also fell in the Top 50 defenders ranking, in which he took 36th place last week. Now it is in the 47th position. Leading the way are Quinn Hughes, Cale Makar, Adam Fox, Evan Bouchard, Ramus Dahlin, Roman Josi, Noah Dobson, Josh Morrissey, Moritz Seider and Victor Hedman.

The German is not among the Top 10 rookies, but he is among five rookies worth considering. Otherwise, Connor Bedard, Luke Hughes, Joseph Woll, Piotr Kočetkov, Logan Cooley, Brock Faber, Adam Fantilli, Devon Levi, Tyson Foerster and Dmitry Voronkov made the list.

The German played 10 games this season, recording four points per goal and three assists. He also scored two penalty minutes and five minus points.

The Vancouver Canucks acquired defenseman Nick Cicek and a fourth-round draft pick from the San Jose Sharks on Friday in exchange for forward Jack Studnick.

We recommend:
Will his suffering end? Tomáš Tatar was replaced!

Cicek played 18 games in the lower AHL this season, registering a goal and two assists. At the age of 23, he has played 16 NHL games with four assists.

A year older, Studnicka played five duels with one goal for the first team this season. In Abbotsford, he added nine duels in which he recorded a goal and six assists. He played a total of 90 games in the NHL with 16 points (6+10). He also played for Boston, who drafted him 53rd overall in 2017.
