The majority of Novotny’s value comes from his brain. At his best, he’s a chess player who uses his teammates as his pawns, throwing them pucks to retrieve while himself moving into favourable positions in the offensive zone. With the puck, he keeps defenders on their toes and doesn’t just opt for the simple plays, instead delaying and looking for the play with the highest value. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
