WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"The 6-3 netminder enjoyed a season to remember in 2000-01. All Cechmanek did in his first campaign in North America was win 35 games for the Flyers and finish second in the NHL in both goals-against average (2.01) and shutouts (10). He represented the world team at the mid-season all-star game and was voted to the second all-star team at season's end. Cechmanek's unorthodox style quickly won over the fickle Philly fans. However, he'll have a hard time following up on a memorable NHL debut. Cechmanek heads to his second training camp with the Flyers as the undisputed No. 1 man between the pipes - a far cry from a season ago." (The Sports Forecaster 2001-02, p. 106)

"After two excellent seasons, Cechmanek hopes to finally establish himself as the unquestioned goaltending leader of the Flyers. On the ice, the unorthodox 'keeper had few problems last season. However, he has had ongoing run-ins with Philly management and a few of his teammates. Hopefully, new coach Ken Hitchcock can resolve some of the problems betweek Cechmanek and the club. On a positive note, Cechmanek exorcised his playoff ghosts last year with an outstanding performance against Ottawa. Following the Brian Boucher trade, Cechmanek has been given a major vote of confidence in Philadphia. It's now up to him to raise his game to another level." (The Sports Forecaster 2002-03, p. 104)
