His posture is nearly perfect, with his hips tilted back, his chest over his knees, and the right shin angle. He collects passes and sends them in motion. He uses the dotted line through the neutral zone. And he even works in a little bit of deception from time to time to keep his opponents off-balance. He’ll immediately recognize any opportunity to lead the rush and take it. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
