What impresses me so far in the limited games I’ve seen him on tv is he never panicks when he has the puck and the opposing players are pressuring him.
Head fakes to gain time and space and then skate it away, reverses to his D and some really good lob wedges that not only relieves pressure but puts it in some good spots where the Wrangler forwards can pressure the opposing D.
Another thing I noticed is when attacking he is not scared to make plays as he knows there is a forward backing him up in case the other team goes the other way.
And when they do, because he is out of position, he picks up the trailer and then interchanges with forward who covered him.
