Contract
-

His game is all about finding lanes to the slot by gaining a step on defenders or dangling them. When he gets there, he launches screened shots. His release is probably the second-best on the Drakkar after Légaré. He fakes releases or passes to force opponents to slow down or get into a blocked position, creating lanes and a short span of time to move inside the slot. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
