Marko Dano's Player Profile

Dano transferred to a KHL team in Slovakia after playing in that country's domestic professional league the season before. Despite being born in Austria, he has represented Slovakia, playing well for them in internationally. His most notable performance was at this season's World Junior Championship, where he was one of the tournament's top players. He has a lot offensive skills, most notably his hockey sense and his good hands. He is a very aware player, capable of top-end distributions. He tends to make quick decisions, and is an agile player, with powerful, all-around bursts. One scout described him as a slippery skater because of his agility and creativity with the puck. He has an above-average top gear. He will show some physical effort, but he is a smaller player at 5'11", and he projects as fringe in the physical areas at the NHL level. He will need to build up his strength.
