Eduard Šalé Among the Top Five Prospects for the 2023 NHL Draft!

 It is hardly surprising: he regularly displays his quality and “soft hands” in the Czech Extraliga, playing for Kometa Brno at just 17 years of age. It was no coincidence that he was also named the best junior player in the 2022 Golden Hockey Stick awards. In the U20 World Championship semi-final against Sweden, he played on the first line and was part of the sensational comeback and overtime victory.

When selecting players for our product packaging – packs and boxes – Eda was an obvious choice. He appears alongside David Pastrňák and goaltender Klára Peslarová.

We had the great opportunity to meet Eda in person twice and have him sign several of his first national-team cards. In the future, those cards may become treasures for many collectors. The ultra-rare GOLD 1/1 parallel card shown in the post, of which only one exists in the world, can be found in Retail packs priced at CZK 90, each containing five random cards. You have a better chance when buying a full Retail box containing 24 packs. You can also find Eda’s autographed cards in Blaster and Hobby boxes. For more information, see the MK National Team 2021/22 series description.

We wish Eda good health, great teammates and the determination to keep improving.
