Ryan Francis Facts

Drafted: 2020 round 5 #143 overall by Calgary Flames

He is a playmaker first and foremost. He moves the puck around opponents by changing the angle of passes; he spins to use his backhand, hooks the puck through the skates of opponents, and shows poise in possession. On any given line, Francis connects plays between teammates. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
