Quotables
“Kisakov is a pure goal scorer. He has an excellent wrist shot and a very quick release. His ability to toe-drag and change the angle on his shot before letting it go can cause issues for opposing goaltenders. Kisakov is a smart player who finds open space away from defenders and sets himself up to take a pass and fire it on the net. He also has a very good one-timer.” – Ben Kerr, Last Word On Sports
“Kisakov is a tricky prospect to evaluate because he does some things very well, but the weaknesses to his game are quite notable and seem hard to fix. He is truly sublime when he gets the puck on his stick, able to make fancy, high-end plays with it.” – Derek Neumeier, FC Hockey
There is a lot of pace and creativity in Kisakov’s game. He attacks the neutral zone with crossovers, tracing weaving patterns that veil his intentions from defenders. As he closes the gap with them, he abruptly cuts one way, forcing them to cross their feet or pivot to match his turn, and then explodes in the opposite direction, gaining the zone to fire on net. -EliteProspects 2021 NHL Draft Guide
