Andrei Svechnikov's Player Profile

Dan Marr - Director of NHL Central Scouting: "Svechnikov has a consistent and competitive power game that gets the puck through checks and to the net with speed and skill. He’s able to create and finish scoring chances in a timely manner and quickly established himself in the OHL as an offensive impact player."

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - April 30: "One scout who watched Svechnikov play said he already looked like an NHL player. The Hurricanes need to add offense, and the 6-2, 188-pound wing is the best forward in the draft. "

Mike Morreale - NHL.com - April 30: "A power forward with great offensive instincts, high-end skills, puck control and a fantastic shot."

Craig Button - TSN - April 28: "Blend of skill, sense, power and drive that reminds me in style of Marian Hossa. He's a factor in the game in all areas and will be in the NHL next season."

Sam Cosentino - SportsNet - April 28: "OHL Rookie of the Year is quite an honour considering he played in just 44 regular season games, or roughly two-thirds of the season. He can impact the game in several areas. He has size and is incredibly dedicated to the craft."

Steve Kournianos - SportingNews/The Draft Analys - April 28: "Although it's highly unlikely Svechnikov leapfrogs Dahlin to be the first name called on draft day, his goal-scoring abilities are on par with the likes of Alex Ovechkin and Patrik Laine, only Svechnikov is more reliable defensively at his age."

Cam Robinson - DobberProspects - April 26: "Physically ready for the NHL, Svechnikov blends world-class finishing ability with hard-nosed and defensively responsible play. A goal scorer who can impact the game in all situations. Terrific blend of speed, power and precision."
