He anticipates pockets of space well, arrives as the puck does for shooting opportunities, positions his body in the best way to catch and release each pass, and generally seems well-connected to his teammates during sustained offensive zone possessions. He's always involved in the play. You'll never mistake Kemell for a retrieval artist either, but he's shown some forechecking skill and physicality across many of our viewings, too. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
