Scouting Report: “Hreschuk looks to jump into the rush, takes passes in motion from the point, and brings some defensive value,” wrote EliteProspects. “He’s a strong single variable defender, thanks to his mobility and physicality. He drives the play to the perimeter and throws the odd hit. Physicality translates across the defensive end.”
