The St. Louis Blues 1st round pick (23rd / 2022) continues to prove he is an elite shooter / goal scorer.
At the WJC representing Team USA he played to his identity
Snuggerud scored 5G-3A in 7GP
Quick catch and release. Shoots the puck accurately. Sniffs out quiet ice to open up space for him to get the play on net. Solid skater. Some bump to his game at times.

Snuggerud is a very good skater who can be a threat off the rush. He's also sturdy / strong and can make plays in tight quarters along the boards and out front the net. He's an elite thinker in the offensive zone.
His element as an NHL prospect is his offensive upside but he's also reliable at ES in all three zones. He won't drive the play at all times for his line but a skilled centreman will appreciate playing with Snuggerud. He projects to be a top 6 NHL forward who can skate at ES and PP
