Defence, physicality, and pace are constants in Židlický's game. He scans for threats, ties them up, locks onto his check, and switches coverage when necessary. Where most players reach, he takes the extra stride and skates through the opponent's hands to secure possession. Then, he's off to the races, barrelling straight to the net. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
