Benák is known as a playmaking, defensive-sound forward. He is also a highly precise passer, he lands saucer passes through the tiniest of openings on the power play, hits teammates at the far post, and plays a high-pace, give-and-go style that often sees him make several skilled passes in succession. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
