A speedster, Kevan burns defenders with non-stop crossovers and hands that match. He charges into space, only to cut back and find the trailer. If not, he works a give-and-go to burst through the defensive line. And he has a ton of flash, weaving through traffic, beating defenders, and pulling pucks through and around their feet before going to the net or creatively spinning a pass across the slot. Without the puck, Kevan’s speed is just as impactful. He chases down puck carriers to press them to the outside and steal possession. After passing, he skates his routes to create space for his teammates behind him and crashes the net for loose pucks. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
