Paaso has carved himself a big role in Karpat's defence by being a reliable defensive contributor. He engages the body well and is tough to play against in front of the net. He made simple decisions that advanced the play nicely. He defends well in the NZ, keeping a tight gap. Paaso was also stable in his own end, closing passing lanes and playing hard in front of the net. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
