Mooney is – in a word – dynamic. He attacks at a breakneck speed, combining quick-twitch handling with even quicker feet. If the defence doesn’t back off, he powers right through it, occasionally in highlight-reel fashion. More playmaker than shooter, he looks for teammates across the slot, at the net front, and occasionally deceives the defence to secure the lane. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
