This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

The Flames selected Honzek in the first round (16th) in Nashville. The 6'4 194lbs forward was slowed by injury to start this season.
Honzek is a rangy, average plus skater, with good puck touch and vision. He's best described as equal parts goal scorer and play maker. His long reach is an asset when protecting pucks from checkers and interrupting the flow of opponents in the defensive zone. His three-zone detail is reliable.
