Hurtig can pass through the forecheck, shield the puck, activate, and beat opponents one-on-one with some clever manoeuvres when the game slows down a bit. He can problem-solve the forecheck with shoulder checks, pass preparation (fakes), and sees multiple layers. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
