Dvorsky plays a complete two-way game. He uses his size and strength to gain an advantage defensively which could be utilized on any team’s penalty kill. Offensively, Dvorsky is an excellent puck handler but is headlined by his powerful and accurate shot making him a dangerous player whenever the puck touches his stick.
