Olivers Murnieks' Player Profile

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - July 4th: "The 2008-born forward is skilled, dynamic and already is leading Latvia’s U-20 team. M?rnieks drives through the middle so well and uses his solid, strong frame to get himself into scoring positions with little difficulty. Keep a close eye on him."

Samuel Tirpak - FC Hockey - April 22nd: "He’s incredibly responsible, drives the play well, wins a lot of draws, and is just simply a reliable option as a center in any situation. His hockey IQ makes him one of the best Latvians to ever enter the draft."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - April 1st: "He’s an excellent two-way player and penalty killer who tracks and wins pucks and plays with great detail for a player his age. He’s a little heavyset, his skating is just average and his skill level isn’t dynamic, but he has secondary skill and looks like a real player. He profiles as a potential 3C someday."
