Scouting Reports:
“Intelligent and skilled forward, Chytil plays with a high amount of hockey sense and sees the play very well in both the offensive and defensive zones, agile skater and can turn on a dime, can make plays at full stride and possesses both strong passing ability and an accurate wrist shot.” – Brandon Holmes, Riding Pine Hockey

“Chytil is a speedy player with good hockey sense and offensive skill. He is a very good skater, with very quick feet and balance on his edges that allows him to generate good power from every stride and high-end acceleration in his first few steps. He uses his speed well to carry the puck up ice, into the offensive zone, stopping up along the outside and setting up for some offensive zone time. His vision of the ice helps him to quickly find open lanes to go through with the puck and once moving he is hard to contain when he finds space. Has decent puck skills, although nothing too electrifying, and is able to receive and dish passes at full speed without breaking stride. He is stronger than his size would indicate, hard to knock off the puck showing tremendous puck protection, goes into dirty areas and wins most of his puck battles alongside the board. He can pull the trigger with a heavy and accurate wrist shot that is dangerous anywhere from the circles on in. He is also very active on the forechecking and his long reach helps him to steal the puck from his opponents and create even more quality scoring chances. He is very sneaky. It is not uncommon to see him work deep in both zones and even throw a hit or two, as he wants to make his presence felt. A guy you will need to have patience with as he takes a few seasons to add strength, but he could be well worth it.” – Future Considerations
