Väisänen has nearly every modern defenceman skill set: He activates, shifts the defence towards him before passing, sets up chances, uses space before shooting, and closes space off the rush early. With the puck, he’s a manipulator; he fakes one way to get the opponent to chase, then accelerates in the opposite direction. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
