[edit] Playing career

After being selected 25th overall by the Vancouver Giants in the 2005 CHL Import Draft, Řepík debuted with Vancouver in 2005–06 and appeared in the 2006 Memorial Cup as the Giants captured the WHL title. Although the Giants were eliminated in the semi-finals, they were chosen to host the next year's 2007 Memorial Cup. After scoring 55 points in 56 games, Řepík led the WHL in playoff scoring with 26 points in 22 games, then earned the Ed Chynoweth Trophy as the Memorial Cup's leading scorer en route to the 2007 CHL title.

In the subsequent 2007 NHL Entry Draft, he was drafted in the 2nd round, 40th overall, by the Florida Panthers and returned to the Giants for the 2007-08 season. In his third season with Vancouver, Řepík scored a junior career high 61 points in 51 games, but was eliminated with the Giants in the second round of the WHL playoffs by eventual 2008 Memorial Cup champions, the Spokane Chiefs.
