Some rumours floating around here are saying that Patrik might be going to play in Sweden next year.
Interesting.
Any word on what team it would be?

No idea at all. It s just a rumour I heard between fans, who probably heard it from some kids playing hockey, who know Koyš personally. It might not be true at all, but who knows....
There actually were two Slovak kids playing in Sweden this year in Arlanda, but I think it was just some sort of proramme which offers Slovak kids to go play to Sweden for a year. Not sure whether Koyš would be looking at a similar thing or whether it might be a "permanent" move.
Do you think Patrik is doing what Anže Kopitar did?
Leave for a better league than what his home country can offer to increase his skills in the SEL?
But the question is asked, is he that above the what the Extraliga can offer? And if that is the case why not play the CHL like the Hossa's did?
Video from last game at the U16 Slovak Championship between Košice and Dubnica:
Player number 8 in orange jersey should be Koyš.
Hmmm... Can't say I saw much of him.
What was the deal with the shootout at the end of the video?
Any news about Patrik´s team next season? Is there any chance he will play with Trencin? Some interesting moves has been made this offseason between these clubs.. (Kalaber, Bagin)
BTW, Bagin. A lot has been told about 2011 NHL Draft Prospects Jurco, Tvrdon. Also Peter Ceresnak has good chances to be drafted next year. And what about Bagin? I saw him three times this season and he looks great. I know, it was only U18 level but he was dominant. Clearly the best defenceman in league.
Seems like he moved to Trencin. Today he played his first game for "dorast".
Been following this guy sporadically - looks like he's off to a pretty good start this year with 13-14-27 in his first 17 games.
Tied for 2nd in the league in scoring.
Where will he play next year in the same league and team? I have a very strong suspicion that Patrik will leave to play in the CHL at some point. I hope for his sake he decides to play in the Mens league or idealy in my mind go to a country like Russia or Sweden to further his development. These are strong countries in terms of players development and will allow him to further develop his technical skills. Physical play and defence can be learned later. But he definately should wait before coming to North America.
He won't be eligible for the CHL until the '12-'13 season. I doubt that he'll move to another country in Europe as it's quite rare that any European junior players from a top 7 nation do so. To be honest, I think a successful year for him next year would follow a path similar to Marko Dano (ie. Strong play in the Slovak U20 league and perhaps some time in the Slovak Extraliga).
Some czechs are playing in Sweden or Finland, swedes in MHL and many slovak players are going to czech U20 or U18 extraliga.Yes I know since he is a 95 he won't be eligible this coming summer. I'm guessing he will be playing in the u-20 league next year. It really is rare thing to have prospects to go to another European country but a few other prospects are starting to do this mostly ones from weaker hockey countries i.e Denmark-Sweden Nikolai Meyer. Its dissappointing but I have a feeling most of the top prospects of Slovakia will chose to go to the CHL anyways. Reway, Torok, Koys, Paulovic, and Dano etc, a very strong feeling these guys will be drafted and enticed to go.
I heard , that Tomas Torok was in the summer in some SWE junior team. But the level was too high for him now. so he landed in Slavia Praha
Too high? That should be good for him then, the higher the better.Unless I've mistaken you and you meant he got released by the Swedish team?
