A skilled sniper who plays a power game, Pinto has slick hands and he loves to use his flashy dekes to maneuver past opposing defenseman.  He uses his size well and keeps positioning in offensive zone on 50/50 battles. He plays like a bull in a china shop. He’s willing to go to the front of the net in the offensive zone and not afraid to go into battle with opponents to extend plays. He also owns a precise wrist shot and his excellent hand-eye coordination enables him to tip lots of shots fired from the point on net. Is able to release his heavy shot quickly when he gets in the right position. Lazy on draws, he’s not much for taking faceoffs or the ensuing battle for the puck once it’s dropped. He lacks a bit of intensity in all three zones as he watches the play develop before getting involved. He rarely gets involved in board battles in the neutral or defensive zones and doesn’t make any effort to recover the puck when he loses it. Although he has some above average defensive skills and he’s great in man-to-man coverage, he often looks to be out of position in his own zone. Scouts have some concerns about his intensity level and would like to see him get involved in the play on a more consistent basis.
