Kraus plays an aggressive, athletic style where he likes to challenge shooters on top of his crease and often telescoping out even further when making a save. His aggressiveness is most notable in one-on-one situations and breakaways, he loves challenging the shooter and explodes across with strong pushes off both leg. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
