WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT JIMMY

"Snuggerud was called the most improved player during his two seasons at the NTDP by his coach. He upgraded his skating which allows him to get into more dangerous areas to use his shot, considered by scouts to be one of the best among players in this draft class. He's a straight-line player with a power forward game that should translate well to the pro level."
-Adam Kimelman, NHL.com
 
"Snuggerud is a 6’2” winger who’s really improved his skating skills this season. His posture is still a little too upright at full speed, and his accelerating crossover steps are often slow. He anticipates plays wells but will need to work on his feet so that they can match that pace, which will allow him to better capitalize on his unbelievable release and adept passing skills."
-SB Nation
