Adam Benak's Player Profile
Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - January 16th: "He uses his quick hands and creativity to open up space for himself and others, and he’s excellent on the power play. But scouts will definitely knock him down some pegs for being as small as he is, and there’s no real way around that."Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - Dec. 17th: "Size is going to be the clear question with Benak, but the skill and passing are unreal at times. There are moments on offense when Benak can leave you in awe because of the way he sees the ice and the touch he has on his passing."
Smaht Scouting - Dec. 10th: "He’s getting hammered away from the net, and losing a lot of board battles given his dimunitive frame. He has time to gain strength, but his ability to get himself to the scoring areas as he transitions out of junior hockey will determine whether or not he can sustain a scoring role in a North American men’s league."
Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - Dec. 3rd: "Benak is a very crafty, undersized, and skilled forward who’s very competitive and difficult to check in motion. The discussion around the player will revolve around his stature, but he plays bigger than his listed size."
