A pair of Slovak representatives is probably running out of time in the NHL. Forward Miloš Kelemen and defender Patrik Koch will probably return to Europe.

Utah’s Slovakian striker Miloš Kelemen in a preparatory match against St. Louis.
Both are experiencing a weaker start to the new season. According to the specialized portal Eliteprospects, Kelemen is headed to the team of last year’s vice-champion from Pardubice.
Kelemen collected six points in 11 games (1+5) in the current AHL season with the Tucson Roadrunners.
Koch, who is said to be interested in the champion Třinec, works in the same team. He played one game less and has two assists to his credit.
They both went overseas from the Czech Republic. Koch played three seasons in Vítkovice, Kelemen spent a year in Mladá Boleslavy.
Both helped Slovakia qualify for the 2026 Olympics and were part of the Slovak team at the World Championships in the Czech Republic last year.
