Foster's a play-builder, preferring to delay, cutback, or pass rather than partake in a needless footrace down the boards. He always scans and draws pressure before passing, and he has the passing skill " slip, backhand, and even some deception " to connect. Along the boards, he steps into opponents before cutting back, creating a lane for his escape. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
