A crafty handler and skater, Bracco circles the offensive zone, waiting for lanes to open. If he spots a gap in coverage, he fakes to prolong it and presses, but his offensive game is more about activating off-puck for chances and making incisive passes from the point down low. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
