Kyle Connor's Player Profile

Greg Rajanen - Central Scouting: "He's a solid two-way player and plays hard in both zones. Nice stride and quickness and good in tight with the puck."

Adam Kimelman of NHL.com (Apr.20th): "A smart, skilled forward able to use his speed in all areas of the ice, he can make elite plays at top speed because of his outstanding vision. His 80 points led the United States Hockey League and is 34 goals were one behind the league leaders. He'll continue his development at the University of Michigan next season."

Mike Morreale of NHL.com (Apr.20th): "The 6-1, 177-pound University of Michigan recruit led the United States Hockey League with 80 points, and his 34 goals were fourth, one behind the league leaders. His nine game-winning goals led the league and his 32 power-play points were tied for first. He’s shown great quickness in tight spaces and makes things happen with the puck on his stick."

Curtis Joe of EliteProspects: An exceptionally talented playmaker and always a consistent threat on the ice; Rantanen is a combination of elite-level hockey sense, silky smooth hands, and nimble skating. Needs to improve his shot and physical play, as he doesn't take advantage of his size in many situations. All-in-all, an intelligent, big-bodied forward that oozes skill.
