Hong never quits on a play. He sprints for every loose puck and engages in every battle he finds. Turnovers abound when he's on the forecheck. Opponents who try to step into him are often met with an intercepting shoulder. He bulldozes through contact without much difficulty, even overpowering bigger, faster players. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
