Scouting Report:
A good,
agile skater with fast first steps and great speed with the puck, able to move
in different directions unexpected. Likes to go one on one and possess slick
hands and puck handling skills. Has a great overview to set up plays with his
accurate and strong pass. He doesn’t need a lot of space to make plays and shows
great patience with the puck. Still needs to gain strength and doesn’t show a
lot of physical game. Needs to use his powerful wrist shot more often and
sometimes tends to try too much with the puck on his stick. Doesn’t panic when
under pressure, though. Sprong is a player who always gets things going and doesn’t
shy away from making plays. Shows hockey sense in many of his shifts and can
make a difference on and off the ice in favour of his team.
NHL Potential: Playmaker. Has a very good overview and great accurate pass to setup plays.
Style compares to: Jaden Schwartz
