Top 10 World Junior Performances by Current Toronto Maple Leafs
By Mike Jack
Petr Mrazek (G) – Czech Republic
Petr Mrazek played in 2012 World Junior Championships at the age of 19. He had been drafted by the Detroit Red Wings with their 5th round pick (141st overall) in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.
Mrazek was chosen by the Czech Republic team after a stellar season with the OHL’s Ottawa 67’s where he had a 33-15-3 record and a .920 save percentage.
Despite having a 3-3-0 record during the tournament on route to the Czech Republic getting eliminated in the quarter finals, Petr Mrazek was voted Best Goaltender of the Tournament and was awarded a place on the U20 WJC All-Star Team with a .928 save percentage and 2.49 goals against average. He was also presented with a Top 3 Players on Team Czech Republic award.
Petr Mrazek is now playing in his 10th NHL season, his first with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and hopefully he’ll return from injury soon and contribute to the team’s success.
