He seems to know his next play before the puck comes to him. He flashes deception, anticipates seams, controls his skating to attack them, sees opportunities to hide at the top of the offensive zone to pop in the slot for passes, and generally supports plays well -- even if connecting them can prove a bit more difficult. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
