He finds space off-puck, timing his movements into pockets. Dangerous shooter, especially off the pass: Distance between feet to generate downforce, elbow up, hands in front, and a really fast weight transfer. He’s pretty slick on retrievals, using some deceptiveness and cutbacks to escape pressure. Consistent energy and brings some defensive value. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
