Scouting Reports

"He’s committed to the University of New Hampshire and they’re really excited to get him there. He’s going to have an important role. He’s 5-foot-10, but he plays bigger. He’s relentless, he plays with a lot of energy and pace, compete and nose for the net. He scores big goals and has the ability to make big plays too." Bobby Strum, Ottawa Senators Amateur Scout

"Sturdy, fearless forward with good hands and a nose for the net who can finish in a variety of ways. Crookshank, who is committed to the University of New Hampshire, played top-line minutes and saw significant time on the power play. He is a strong skater with good speed and is difficult to knock off the puck. Once in full flight, Crookshank maintains control of himself and doesn’t look like an erratic player who will make low-percentage plays — he will stop on a dime with his head up to look for cutters or make a quick directional change towards the cage. Once he’s inside the circles, Crookshank can unload a lethal shot with an incredibly quick release, but also has a high success rate when he takes the puck strong to the net, especially when he goes to his backhand. As good a goal scorer as he is, Crookshank has excellent vision and is capable of executing passes that lead to quality scoring chances." Steve Kournianos, The Draft Analyst; Sporting News
