There are no shifts off from Pacheco. He sprints up and down the ice, antagonizing the puck carrier with non-stop pressure, jumping into shooting lanes, and pushing back defenders with net drives. But he also knows when to slow down, showing a give-and-go game, an understanding of how to get open inside space, and flashes of exciting skill. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
