These days, Tomas Jurco is front page news.
The slick Saint John Sea Dogs Slovakian skater was featured on the front page of NHL.com earlier today after having his unreal skills put on display for the cameras.
Now called 'The Magician,' Jurco is well known around the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League for his nasty shootout moves. But his display at the Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game Skills Competition on Tuesday night has made his internet stardom grow.
The Sea Dogs winger was featured on TSN earlier this season, but NHL.com took it a step further by posting two highlight packages, five specific skills features, and his shootout moves from Tuesday’s skills competition. The NHL posted two videos on their Facebook page, a page that has over one-million fans.
All of the videos can be seen on the NHL’s video section of their website. Here is one of the highlight packages:
In 33 games with Saint John this season, Jurco has 17 goals and 15 assists. He is three-for-four in the shootout this year.
