Nikolai Khvorov

Khvorov is a deft playmaker. He sends passes into space for teammates at just the right time and with just the right weight, allowing them to pick up the puck without breaking strides. His stickhandling skills also complement his passing game quite well. He can open up defenders and make them turn to create passing lanes to teammates and he consistently drives the middle to attract the defence on him and open space on the wings for others. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
