Sale is a big man and has all the skills you wish for in a NHL prospect. He is a very smart forward with great hands and his problem-solving skills in tights areas are exceptional. With his puck skills he can stickhandle out of every trouble. In this game he was at his best playing with the puck in offensive zone, he can change speeds with the puck on his stick very quickly either speed up and get past defender or slow down, draw defenders and find his teammates in open space. He is very confident on the puck and it is almost impossible to take the puck away from him when he is in full control of it. His stickhandling technique is very good and he is also very effective skater under pressure with quick turns, cuts and deceptions. Sale is also very smart and has great vision and passing skills as well. He is a dual-threat as he creates chances for his teammates all game long but you can not underestimate his scoring abilities. Sale is a very good skater, he is fast and very effective even though I did not feel like he is very explosive player. Sale is very smart, has great vision and great hands. Before the start of the season he looks like a first rounder to me.
