Where most players sprint, he delays or cuts inside to create a better look. Where they deke, he uses a give-and-go. He turns tricky pass receptions into shots without much issue. And there are moments where he deceives the defender between him and the intended target of his pass to open the lane. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
