Aho does a fine job of blocking shooting and passing lanes on the penalty kill. In transition, he does a good job of advancing the puck. He can flash abilities to saucer pass and can utilize his backhand as well. He's able to glide efficiently, and his edges are solid. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
