At one point in time, Kaden Pitre was the most feared player in the ETA, and received high praise for being special. Since then, Pitre has taken his talents to Vaughan, where he serves as one of the top players. Pitre is praised for his strong two way game, which helps assert him as a lethal player at both sides of the ice. Pitre is one of the best skaters around, and he uses this elite skating to help make him a deadly offensive force, which when coupled with his good shot, makes him a scoring threat more often than not. Pitre is a very quiet, yet mature player for his age, a trait that will help him mesh very well on an OHL team with older players on it. Despite all of his upsides, Pitre would benefit from being more consistent. With his draft year coming up in 2022 for the OHL, Pitre will be on full display with the Kings, and will be aided heavily by his past performances to gain some notoriety amongst the other draftees. Pitre, thanks to his elite abilities, could see himself going higher in the draft, where he could end up stepping into the OHL within the first couple of years after the draft. Pitre is certainly a player that should not be passed up on, as he could become a very serviceable two way player that can make all the smart plays at the OHL level.
