report from EP draft guide

Maxim Štrbák is a two-way defenceman with dynamic skating and plays a highly creative game. He tries to make plays with every puck touch. A spin move here, a dangle there, and many slip passes. He’s got high compete, excels at getting the puck out, and is good in transition. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
