Jagger Firkus's Player Profile

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - June 29th: "One scout said among Firkus' best traits is his ability to hide in plain sight, almost appearing out of nowhere, then finding the back of the net with a quick, hard, accurate shot."

Peter Harling - NHL Rumors - June 27th: "Has top-six offensive winger upside with highlight-reel skills, but is slight at 5-10, 154 soaking wet and holding bricks."

Jeff Svoboda - NHL.com - June 27: "The first thing that stands out is his shot, as Firkus showed this past year he can score from just about anywhere. Size is a bit of an issue, but a lot of junior players haven't been able to catch The Firkus Circus as the Alberta native has an excellent skating and acceleration skills as well."

Nick Richard - Dobber Prospects - June 18th: "Firkus has the skill and the will to create his own scoring opportunities and a shot that is among the best in the class. It pops off his blade and he changes up the release point depending on the situation, adding a layer of deception to an already deadly shot."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 6th: "Firkus is one of those little guys who just always seems to be around it. He plays the game with pace, energy, and skill so that you can’t help but notice him shift-to-shift as he dashes around the ice making plays offensively."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 31: "He shows great ability to beat defenders one-on-one with his stickhandling. He can make tough passes at a high rate through seams and under pressure."

Chris Peters - Daily Faceoff - June 10th: "With quick hands and one of the best releases in this class, Firkus raised his draft stock throughout the season. He has good-enough quickness with his feet to get around and through defenses and has the hands to make defenders miss."
