Veilleux’s an intelligent, three-zone defenceman who seeks to add value to every sequence, whether he’s activating, slipping a puck through a defender, or deceiving before finding the open teammate. Even on basic touches, he hangs onto possession that split-second longer to draw pressure and create an advantage elsewhere. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
