Radim Zohorna (born 29 April 1996) is a Czech professional ice hockey player for the Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League (NHL).[1]
Playing career[edit]
Zohorna made his Czech Extraliga debut playing with HC Kometa Brno during the 2014–15 Czech Extraliga season.[2]
Following his sixth season in the ELH in 2019–20, having set a career high with 10 goals, 12 assists and 22 points in 56 games with third-placed BK Mladá Boleslav, Zohorna was signed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins on 30 April 2020.[3]
On 10 August 2020, Zohorna agreed to return to former Czech club BK Mladá Boleslav on loan until the commencement of the delayed 2020–21 North American season.[4]
Zohorna made his NHL debut for Pittsburgh on 25 March 2021 against the Buffalo Sabres. He scored his first NHL goal on his first shot in that game.[5]
On 2 October 2022, Zohorna was placed on waivers for the purpose to be sent down to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins of the American Hockey League (AHL) for the 2022–23 season. However, he was claimed the next day by the Calgary Flames.[6] On 3 March 2023, the Flames traded Zohorna to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Dryden Hunt.[7]
As a free agent from the Maple Leafs, Zohorna opted to return to his original club, the Pittsburgh Penguins, in signing a one-year, two-way contract on 2 July 2023.[8] Zohorna, despite having a good 2023 training camp with Pittsburgh, was placed on waivers and after going unclaimed, was assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to start the 2023–24 season.[9] He was recalled by Pittsburgh and made his season debut with the Penguins against the St. Louis Blues on 22 October.[10]
Personal life[edit]
He has two brothers, Tomáš and Hynek, who are also professional ice hockey players.
