Six-foot-five players don’t skate, shoot, or handle like Jecho. He’s a powerful skater who easily links different manoeuvres, fluidly handling the puck in his hip pocket the entire time. He shoots in stride with near-perfect form, turns tricky passes into two-touch wristers, and uses his full to slip and hook pucks through defenders. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
