Talent Analysis
Talented offensively, Hrivik also showed a willingness to do the smaller things that help win hockey games including a crucial buy-in with Moncton's defense-first system. With a quick shot and a nose for the net, the 19-year-old is a constant threat in the offensive zone, but needs to continue to work on his skating. Struggling at times with consistent effort, Hrivik is at his best when he engaging the opposition and using his body to create chances and protect the puck.
