Pospisil used to be one of the top talents among Czech 87-borns when he was in the midget category. He was predicted to be a great player but stopped improving as much as others did. He lost confidence and was not performing very well, however, his talent was still apparent. During 2004-05 season he made another major improvement, he was given trust by coaches in Trinec juniors and also in the national team, he started to score points and became more confident.
At the U-18 WJC Pospisil joined Vladimir Sobotka and David Kveton to form the first line. Pospisil played well on this skill line, but he mostly supplied his linemates with smart passes and did not score. In the game against Canada, while fighting for the puck near boards he injured his ribs.
Pospisil moved to the OHL Sarnia Sting in 2005-06.
February 2006 feature on Pospisil.
He joined the Wolves on an amateur tryout contract after his junior season was over but did not play games.
