New Jersey’s season is already over and thus the first reinforcements for the World Cup are looming for the Czech national team. Overseas journalists are already reporting that Tomáš Nosek and Ondřej Palát will join the national team.
During the Devils’ last game against the Islanders, the Czech players also spoke to the media –

Both also talked about the world championship, which will be held in Prague and Ostrava.
The Czech national team has not yet confirmed the first overseas reinforcements, but these two are very close to this goal.
Palat is very proud of MS. “But if I make the team,” he said, adding that he should join the national team at the end of April.
The two-time Stanley Cup winner has only represented the World Cup once, in 2019 in Bratislava. He didn’t even have more options, after all, he almost always played long playoffs.
“It’s my goal now. I’ve never played in a championship.”
The Nosek?
“It’s my goal now. I have never played in a championship. It would be especially great now that it will be at home in the Czech Republic,” the 31-year-old forward, who played only 36 games (2+4) due to injury this year, told overseas journalists.
In addition, he has a chance to play in Prague in October during the NHL Global Series. In July, Nosek will become an unrestricted free agent, but he would like to stay with the Devils. And not only because of the New Jersey game against Buffalo in the Czech Republic. “The family likes it here. I hope it goes well.”
Will the national team confirm these two signings soon?
According to Chicago media, goalkeeper Petr Mrázek could also be preparing for the WC. In theory, there could also be interest in defender Radek Gudas or goalkeeper Lukáš Dostál from Anaheim, Filip Zadina and Jan Rutta from San Jose or Dominik Kubalík and Jiří Smejkal from Ottawa.
