Patrik Elias wins Golden Stick Award for being Best Czech Hockey Player in the World
The original news article is in Slovak, so here's the same page after a Google translation to English.
Big, big hat tip to Jonathan Willis of the Copper and Blue for bringing up this news. It is named to whom the media thinks was the best hockey player from the Czech Republic in this past season. Elias led all Czechs in scoring in the NHL last season, and the NHL currently recognizes him as the best Czech player in the league. A clear slam dunk over, say Jaromir Jagr playing in the KHL.
According to the article, it's the first time Elias has ever won the award - breaking a 4 year winning streak by Jagr. Congratulations to Patrik Elias for earning the Golden Stick Award.

One more thing...
…I did know NHL.com named Zach Parise the best American player in the league and Martin Brodeur as the second best Canadian player and top Canadian goaltender earlier this month. I didn’t post anything about it because, let’s be frank here, it’s not news to Devisl fans that Brodeur and Parise own.
(Insert a big smug smiley here.)

It’s also not news that I sometimes misspell things. Devils fans also know that Brodeur and Parise own, but I’m confident the Devisl supporters know this too.
