Sapovaliv was selected 48th overall by the Golden Knights in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft on Friday.
Scouting Report
The big center from Czechia has soft hands and can make plays in small spaces. He is a pass-first player who is defensively responsible and strong on the puck. His biggest liability is his skating; he has to develop the quickness that is needed to thrive in the smaller ice surfaces of the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Quality playmaking center.
