A giant with great strength and reach. Kudrocs main strength is the defensive game and the play in front of his own goalie. He plays a physical brand of hockey with decent timing in his hits. Has a powerful release that can be used in powerplay situations. Has, however, some problems with his temper and takes too many penalties. Sometimes he overrates his own offensive ability, which causes turn-overs.
