Brisebois is a very good skater. He has good speed and acceleration in both directions. Add to his speed, a quick first step, excellent edgework, and quick pivots, and he can change directions very quickly and is very difficult to beat off the rush. Brisebois could work on his lower body strength and balance though.

Guillaume Brisebois mains good gap control in the defensive zone and forces forwards to the outside. He has a solid poke check which seperates opponents from the puck. His good footwork and solid skating make Brisebois difficult to beat in one-on-one situations, be they off the rush, or in keeping his man to the outside in the cycle game. He uses that quick stick to cut down on passing lanes and opportunities. He also shows good positioning in his own end. While Brisebois shows a willingness to battle in the corners and in front of the net, he isn’t a big hitter. He will also need to get physically stronger in order to clear the front of the net and win battles in the corners at the next level, but has a good frame that he can add muscle to.
I'm always impressed when a player makes Team Canada. Only downside is his -40 but that's on a terrible team. 6'2" with room to grow sounds good to me.
