Adam Raska

Under-sized off hander left winger with good feet and effort and a quick wrister. Uses his speed in on the forecheck and it is very rare that he doesn’t finish one of his checks. Night by night one of the hardest  worker in the entire QMJHL causing turmoil with his skating ability and willingness to take contact and meet it head on. Not big guy but is continually using his speed to back defenders off the blue line. This is not a goal scorer or generator by way of skill, but one elevates teammates and his play effort and intensity. Doesn’t seem to see or read unraveling action with the clear vision of many forwards who are asked to play in top six roles and misses chances to transport pucks to teammates in better possession to take shots than the ones he ends up taking. Tireless workers have a way of making their places on rosters.
