TLDR He can see why he is producing points in the ECAC as he is afforded a lot of open ice in high danger areas in game that will not be granted against structured defences. Wyttenbach seems to frequently vacate the zone early even when turnovers occur around his own blue line, and he doesn’t appear to control the puck for extended stretches. 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.
FWIW he is very high on both Reschny and Potter.

What does that mean? Don't good players look for openings to receive a pass? How does he "create space"? Sounds like something that happened on the second day of creation.
