- PuckhandlerSpeedsterTwo-Way Forward
- NHL Rights
Calgary Flames / Unsigned- Agency
- Premium
At his best, Potter attacks at angles, blending explosive stop-and-starts, instantly translating from forward stride to cut to crossover. This is all possible due to Potter’s deep skating stance, accelerating out of every move, all while linking plays through difficult-to-read changes in pace. Through his mobility, Potter leverages space, operates with an independent upper body, funnels pucks to the inside, and slips pucks through traffic for teammates. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
