Scouting Report: “Letourneau is gigantic, but contrary to other players his size, it doesn’t feel like he’s trapped in his own body,” wrote EliteProspects. “He moves quite freely, especially because he uses crossover techniques to avoid the long, slower strides, and there’s a good upper-body/lower-body separation and some agility. A lot of his offence consists of downhill attacks where he surveys pressure, drives the net with his range and size, or leverages the attention he receives to find open teammate.”
