Puolanne churns out chances for himself and his teammates through anticipating the play, taking intelligent routes, flashing impressive vision and efficiency as a playmaker and even some manipulative qualities with the puck. His smarts also show through his off-puck game, having a knack for timing his movements to the slot. As a handler, he’s deft and adaptive. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
