Radek Bonk (born January 9 1976, in Krnov, Czechoslovakia) is a professional ice hockey center in the NHL for the Nashville Predators. He was drafted third overall by the Ottawa Senators in the 1994 NHL Entry Draft. He spent time in Europe as well as in the IHL before becoming an NHL regular. He went on to play for the Senators for 10 seasons, eventually becoming the team’s top center. A skilled player, he was often criticized in the Ottawa media for his lack of aggression, despite his size. On the day of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft, he was traded to the Los Angeles Kings for a third round draft pick. The same day, Bonk was traded to the Montreal Canadiens with Cristobal Huet for Mathieu Garon and a third round selection. His most productive season points-wise was the 2001-2002 season when he had 70 points. Bonk wears number 14 on his jersey.
