NHL Affiliated Prospects Guide 2026His 6-foot-4 frame is amplified by rangy hips that let him sit wide in his stance and butterfly to envelope the lower areas of the net. His visual connection to the puck is strong, tracking shots and finding pucks off deflections.
Read Kim Saarinen's NHL Affiliated Prospects Guide 2026 report
Saarinen brings a unique combination of skill and size to the table. He keeps excellent access to his edges and remains patient when the puck is passed around the zone, capable of making quick adjustments in either direction. He’s also a difficult goaltender to beat on clean shots because of his above-average tracking ability. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
