Marek Zagrapan (born December 6, 1986 in Prešov, Czechoslovakia) is a Slovakian ice hockey centre. He has signed to play for the Severstal Cherepovets of the Kontinental Hockey League.

Playing career[]

Zagrapan was drafted by the Buffalo Sabres in the first round, 13th overall, in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft. After playing two seasons in the Czech Extraliga with HC Zlín, Zagrapan came to North America after HC Zlín became the Czech champions in 2004. Zagrapan then played two seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League with the Chicoutimi Saguenéens.

On September 12, 2006, he signed a entry-level contract with Buffalo and spent the 2006–07 and 2007–08 seasons with their American Hockey League affiliate, the Rochester Americans. Zagrapan then spent the 2008–09 season with new affiliate of the Sabres, the Portland Pirates.

On May 29, 2009, Zagrapan returned to Europe citing a lack of opportunity with the Sabres, due to his low amount of points, signing with Severstal Cherepovets of the Kontinental Hockey League on a three-year contract.
