Smarch 3,192 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Player Spotlight – Ondrej Vencko Vencko joined the Victory Hockey League on January 7th, 2024, after his player agent @Mutti signed the young Czech Republic netminder up for the league after a stint with the Czech national leagues Prague Mic Czechs. Vencko was able to jump into the VHLM immediately as he joined the Houston Bulls, who already had a goaltender on the roster that they picked up in the VHLM Dispersal Draft. It didn’t take long for Vencko to take over the starter’s role in Houston, a role he carried the remainder of the regular season where he played in fifty total games out of seventy-two the Bulls played in Season Ninety-Two. In those fifty games, Vencko put up a record of 27-18-3 along with a .892 save percentage and 2.94 goals against average. Vencko also managed to post one shutout in his rookie VHLM season. Vencko and the Bulls were able to finish the season as the last playoff team in the VHLM with eighty-four points, one point behind their first-round playoff opponent the San Diego Marlins. In the playoffs Vencko took his game to the next level, helping the Bulls “upset” the Marlins in six games posting a 4-1-1 record, along with a much improved .914 save percentage and 2.36 goals against average. With more playoff games ahead in the next week for Vencko, he might put VHL General Managers on notice if he continues to play lights out again in the next round. Vencho is currently the eighteenth rated prospect at this point heading into the VHL Entry Draft, but with more quality play from him in the VHLM post-season, he might just jump ahead of the other two goalies currently ahead of him in the rankings.
