Pardue’s two best elements are his motor and shot. He’s physical, but disciplined. He aggressively defends the interior of the ice and patrols the front of the opposition’s net, creating space as necessary. If he gets a bit of space, he instantly turns passes into powerful wristers. He changes the angle on his release, too. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
