Featured · 2026 NHL DraftAn agile, smooth mover, McLaughlin shakes pressure with heel-to-heel skating and tight turns, adding in some quick handling fakes. He’s a space manager offensively, drawing pressure and kicking the puck out of the flanks. With his agility, he shifts across the top of the zone to look for shooting lanes, aiming for deflections and regularly threads shots through heavy traffic.
