Ryder Korczak Facts

Drafted: 2021 round 3 #75 overall by New York Rangers
Agency: Premium

Puck-handling is Korczak’s defining skill, using a combination of herky-jerky movement, deception, and pace to beat defenders. On the power play, his deception reaches another level, threatening shots to set up cross-slot feeds. And the shot’s dangerous, too. He changes the angle on his shots, and occasionally rifles a curl-and-drag wrister around a defender. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
