report from EP draft guide

Viro doesn't hesitate to engage the body in the defensive zone. He has good speed, strong mobility, and he can close gaps quickly. He can skate well, plays bigger than his size, and has proven able against men at an age when most are figuring out how to excel against juniors. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
