Matyas Sapovaliv Scouting Reports

A skilled forward who sees the ice and has the ability to makes plays in traffic.
He's tall and lean with room to add at least 20 pounds to his frame. When he gets stronger his quickness out of the gate should improve as will his open ice separation.
He's a pass first thinker who could be more selfish at times and direct pucks on goal. His hockey IQ is sound. A dangerous playmaker on the power play.

Good size prospect who skates fine up to speed. His first three steps will need to improve.
Really good stick. Sneaky in small areas. His ability to make plays coming off the wall, down low and in traffic is an attractive element. Competes on the defensive side. He recognizes his responsibility and works hard off the puck. Long reach is another positive. Trending up.
Potentially a 2-way forward with better than secondary scoring upside. Added strength should assist with his explosiveness.
