Puckhandling is Karabela’s best skill. He beats defenders with a combination of hand speed, soft touch, and flashes of deception. Hand-eye coordination turns tricky passes and contested pucks into soft catches and quick dekes. Where many skilled handlers just deke, Karabela complements with handling with puck protection. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
