Dylan Guenther's Player Profile

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - July 12th: "Guenther (6-1, 175) averaged 2.00 points per game in the Western Hockey League (24 points in 12 games) and the 18-year-old can use a hard, accurate shot to score from anywhere in the offensive zone."

Mike Morreale - NHL.com - July 12th: "He is an elite goal scorer with quickness who plays a strong, heavy game and can contribute on special teams."

Hockey Prospecting - July 8th: "Due to the shortened 2021 Covid-19 season and playing in the WJC, Guenther only got in 12 games with the Edmonton Oil Kings in the WHL. However, he was a 2 point-per-game player over that span."

Josh Bell of FC Hockey - July 8th: "He’s a strong skater and a threat as both a playmaker and a shooter. There are improvements to make in his play off the puck, but there are few weaknesses in his game that may give teams pause."

Justin Froese of FC Hockey - July 8th: "Guenther is a high IQ player whose malleable game allows him to adapt and excel in a variety of scenarios."

Jameson Ewasiuk - Dobber Prospects - July 7th: "He is a volume shooter whose finishing instincts help him find positioning in smart areas around the net. His skating is an asset that will become even more of a weapon as he gets physically stronger."

Scott Wheeler - The Atheletic - June 22nd: "Guenther has a multi-faceted offensive package off the flank. Inside the offensive zone, his ability to handle the puck in traffic, play pucks into space, and shape and hide his shot all impress."

Ryan Kenneday - The Hockey News - June 11th: "One of the most dangerous offensive players in the 'Dub' this season, Guenther has an excellent combination of high-end skill and a physical presence."

Steve Kournianos - The Draft Analyst - May 24th: "He may look wiry, but this dual-threat from the flank is an excellent penalty killer who also plays with snarl."

Sam Cosentino - Sportsnet - May 12th: "Thinks the game at a high level and is constantly utilizing all resources to improve his game. While offence is what jumps out, the proficiency in his game extends the length of the ice."

Mike G. Morreale - NHL.com - Apr. 23rd: "Guenther is a highly skilled, elite goal scorer who is quick on his skates."

Jameson Ewasiuk - Dobber Prospects - Mar. 8: "Guenther is a swift skating offensive forward who is a threat off the rush but is also lethal on the power play due to the quick release on his shot as well as his ability to get the puck to players in high danger scoring areas."

Tony Ferrari - Dobber Prospects - Feb. 22nd: "He has a good shot that he uses from all over the offensive zone. He thinks the offensive side of the game at a high level, working through layers of the defense to find space. His passing is quite good as well. "
