Milan Michálek (; (:ˈmɪlan ˈmɪxaːlɛk); born December 7, 1984) is a Czech professional ice hockey left winger currently playing for the Ottawa Senators of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted sixth overall by the San Jose Sharks in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft. His older brother is Zbyněk Michálek, a defenceman currently playing for the Arizona Coyotes. ==Playing career== Michálek scored a goal in his first NHL game before suffering a serious knee injury the next game, on October 11, 2003, tearing his right ACL. After knee surgery, Michálek played in the American Hockey League (AHL) before injuring his knee again on January 22. During the 2004–05 NHL lockout, Michálek did not play anywhere, spending the time rehabilitating his knee. Michálek played his first full season with the Sharks in 2005–06, scoring 17 goals and 35 points and earning the San Jose Sharks' ''PlayStation Rookie of the Year'' award. In the 2006–07 season, Michálek emerged as a speedy, multidimensional player and an offensive threat, scoring 26 goals and 66 points. During the following offseason, Michálek signed a six-year, $26 million contract extension through 2014 while still having one year left on his original rookie contract. It was the longest and most lucrative contract ever signed by a Sharks player. In 2007–08, Michálek played primarily on the Sharks' top line with Joe Thornton. Michálek's production dipped to 24 goals and 55 points, but due to the Sharks' overall offensive struggles, he was still second on the team to Thornton in goals and points. On September 12, 2009, Michálek was traded by the Sharks along with Jonathan Cheechoo and a second round pick in 2010 to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for forward Dany Heatley and a fifth round draft pick in 2010. With the Senators, Michálek scored his first career NHL hat-trick against the Tampa Bay Lightning on October 15, 2009; two shorthanded and one on the powerplay. On December 1, he scored two goals against his former team in a 5–2 loss in San Jose. Michálek suffered a concussion after colliding with teammate Erik Karlsson on December 13, 2011, causing him to miss five games.〔http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=383518 MICHALEK WILL RETURN TO SENATORS' LINEUP TUESDAY AGAINST HABS〕 At the time of the injury, he was leading the NHL in goals with 19.〔http://www.torontosun.com/2012/01/03/sens-michalek-looks-to-regain-scoring-touch Sens' Michalek looks to regain scoring touch〕 He was later selected in fan balloting as a starter in the 2011-12 NHL All-Star Game and finished the season with a career high 35 goals. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Milan Michálek」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
