Hater of point shots, Forgione prefers to step into space before firing, creep down the weak side, or shake opponents to gain the middle. He doesn't read opponents' momentum; he dictates it with lateral movement and quick fake to get his preferred lane. He jumps above his forwards on breakouts to become a lead pass option, too. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
