Instead, he relies heavily on one-touch passes and tends to hunt for open space to receive the puck rather than creating space for himself. It’s a very limited viewing sample, but it’s still useful to watch some tape on the NCAA scoring leader and add context to the raw box score production.

This is actually a pretty good assessment of Wyttenbach based on the multiple games I've watched. I mentioned each of these habits during or after game viewings, so I don't think he's being overly hard on the player. Still has incredibly soft hands and can make great passes along with snipe goals. Is he perfect? Nope. But he's a helluva prospect who has blown up this year. That's what should be exciting about him. He's over-achieving in a bigly way.
