Klíma’s shot is his best weapon. He hunts space away from the puck as he enters the offensive zone, skating past defenders or slowing down to create a gap with them, and puts himself in great positions to get passes and fire off of them. He can shoot in a variety of ways and directly off the feeds he gets. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
