He plays a speedy game; he was probably the fastest player out there in this game. The only part of his game that was effective was his forechecking, as he could catch opponents and pin them down or pressure them into making mistakes as they tried to set up the play from behind. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
