Film Room: The unique ways Liam Greentree controls the game make him a top prospect

There were no easy nights for Liam Greentree.

Windsor struggled all season long, but Elite Prospects' No. 15-ranked prospect for the 2024 NHL Draft kept making highlight reel plays. 

By the end of the season, Greentree amassed a collection of highlights that rival anyone in the draft class, and he did it without any free points.
