When Papp is clicking, he's playing high-pace hockey, and he has the hands to keep up, too. He skates with three-point flexion through his stride, starting from the ankle, through his knees, and into his hips. Papp generates a ton of speed transitioning the puck up-ice with the deployment of crossovers through the neutral zone. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
