"Cormier was drafted into the QMJHL as a top prospect (fourth overall in 2018), he has played like that top prospect ever since, and yet I'm weirdly confident that he's going to be available well into the second round because he's perceived as small," Wheeler said.

He was pretty solid for Tappara’s two levels, but he seemed to find another gear when he landed with LeKi. – Jokke Nevalainen, Dobber Prospects, Puistola’s biggest weaknesses are on the defensive side of things, but his compete level is pretty good and his smarts should allow him to turn into a more complete player in the future.
Always moving in his low to ice stance, he dekes you, and makes time to thread the puck to an open teammate.

Cormier's an excellent handler in transition and across the offensive zone blue line, where he rotates and pivots his way into lanes. Not because he won the MVP title, but due to his desire to win.
