Hillström profiles as a big-bodied forward who brings two-way value. He’s got a solid work rate on both sides of the puck, sprinting to cover lanes and using his reach to interrupt opponents in the defensive zone. There’s also an offensive dimension to Hillström’s game. He’s not a particularly dangerous shooter, but has a knack for timing his movements to the net front for rebounds and other opportunities. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
