I've said this in other threads but watching Klimchuk quite a bit over the past few years when he comes to play the Blades I would compare him to Eberle. He has a tireless work ethic out there, and while he might not always be the most skilled player on the ice, he sets the tone and other players follow his lead. You can see him on the bench picking up his team and he always, ALWAYS back checks. Very mature and responsible, he is the guy that the coach looks at for clutch situations.

He has the ability to play just as good in the defensive zone as the offensive zone, and given the numbers he has put up in junior that should tell you all you need to know about this kid. Another player I would liken him to is the Dustin Brown from his first major contract... not sure who this new Brown is..
