Valentin Nussbaumer's Player Profile

Steve Kournianos - The Draft Analyst - Nov. 5th: "Nussbaumer has the misfortune of playing for an undermanned doormat, so take his stats with a grain of salt. He’s a 200-foot center with a high compete level who can tailor his game to his coach’s needs."

Sam Cosentino - SportsNet - Oct. 2nd: "Sees the ice well and creates offence where there’s seemingly no play to be made. Slight of frame — adjusting to a more physical brand will be key in determining his place in this class."

The Draft Analyst - Aug 24th: "Nussbaumer is a strong skater with above-average speed whose game is predicated on staying in constant motion with or without the puck, and his smart positioning plays a key role in his ability to turn opposing turnovers into immediate counterstrikes. He can play either a physical or finesse game, and he’s at his best when controlling the puck in tight quarters and wearing down opponents with sharp pivots or puck protection."

Ben Kerr - Last Word on Hockey - July 19th: "While Nussbaumer is not an elite speedster, he is still a very good skater with above-average speed and acceleration. However, it is his edgework and agility that really makes him dangerous. Nussbaumer can get around defenders and create chances."
