Matej Machovsky signed a one-year contract with the Detroit Red Wings this past offseason after spending the past four years in the Czech Pro League and he seems to be adjusting just fine to professional hockey in North America.

The 24-year-old is currently playing with in the ECHL with the Toledo Walleye and owns a 2-4-0-1 record in seven games to go along with a team-best 2.49 goals against average and a .917 save percentage. In Toledo’s most recent game against the Wheeling Nailers, the Red Wings prospect made an unbelievable pass to set up Kyle Bonis for his eighth goal of the season.

The pass doesn’t look as impressive from the original angle, as it looks like Machovsky was just trying to catch the Nailers making a change, but he was actually sending two of his teammates in on a two-on-one and they rewarded him by finding the back of the net.



Unfortunately for the Walleye they ended up falling short against the Nailers, but that doesn’t take away from how amazing Machovsky’s pass was.
