Seemingly always thinking a step ahead of the opposition, Shlaine plays a cerebral game. Well-positioned and prepared for the next play, he accumulates multiple touches in a sequence, adding value each time. He cleverly distributes to his teammates with quick-possession plays, showing deception and adaptability. And he’s a scoring threat with powerful off-the-pass shots. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
