History
2005-06: With Kladno of the Czech Elite League in 2005-06, he had nine points in 48 games. Dubbed "Baby Jagr" by Czechs, Frolik has at times shown a great likeness to the fellow former Kladno star. He also represented the Czech Republic in the WJC and the World Junior U18.
2006-07: Frolik played his first season of North American hockey with the Rimouski Oceanic (QMJHL). He was fourth among all rookies with a total 73 points (31 goals, 42 assists) in 52 games. He played for Team Czech Republic in the 2007 World Junior competition, tallying 4 goals and 2 assists in 6 games.
2007-08: After a somewhat rocky start to the year, Frolik racked up assists finishing with 41 -- an improvement on his totals from last season. He added 24 goals. And he managed all of this on a Rimouski Oceanic squad that surrendered more goals than they scored during the season.
Talent Analysis
He has displayed exceptional playmaking ability along with a gifted sense for the game. His combination of agile speed and a solid shot can produce plenty of razzle-dazzle in the open ice. He needs to get stronger to handle the size of NHL defensemen.
