Via the Elite Prospects Draft Guide:
Connor Levis is an off-the boards playmaker, combining thievery, puck protection, and passing skill. He’s a machine on the end boards, turning puck battles into point-blank chances with backhand and slip passes under pressure. He builds the offence in transition, passing pucks laterally before relocating for a return pass. He skates his lanes, pushing back defenders or beating them into space and sealing off pressure.
From Scott Wheeler of The Athletic:
“Levis was a point-per-game player on a deep Blazers team this year while playing on both special teams and showing particular proficiency on the penalty kill.”
