The Guelph Storm forward can recognize and make plays instantly during offensive zone sequences. He can link give-and-gos and tic-tac-toe plays and finish them too, with powerful catch-and-release shots and one-timers. There is also a lot of deceptiveness in his game. With a succession of feints and precise handling moves, Zhilkin can manipulate defenders out of passing and shooting lanes. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
