| Carter Gylander |  | G | 22 | 1 of 1 | B+
#3
| Gylander was drafted in the 7th round - by Detroit - in 2019 - He's a big body in the net who's difficult to beat from range when he squares up with his large frame Leans butterfly - but at his best when limiting his overall movement in the crease and playing deeper in the paint 32GP in 23/24 season at Colgate - before signing with the Wings - 14-14-4 record - 2.93 GAA .901 save percentage Average in most skill categories overall - Lateral push - Crease composure and net awareness - Gloves - Playing the puck Depth organization signing - Potential #3 / Recall | Mar. 16, 2024 | Mar. 23, 2024 |
| Justin Holl | | RD | 32 | 3 of 3 | 71
P3
| Holl is having a hard time finding a roll in Detroit He's been a healthy scratch - recently - for nine straight games. Polarizing player who's impact and detail ranges wildly at times. Doesn't produce much offense Big body. Hasn't been playing with enough physical push back / engagement. In his last five game segment he was only credited with 9 hits and 2 shot blocks. When he does dress, his TOI has been trending down - averaging between 13 - 17 minutes - deployed at even strength only. Signed through 25/26. AAV = 3.4M. Contract includes 10 team no trade list. | Feb. 27, 2024 | Mar. 2, 2024 |
| James Reimer | | G | 35 | 3 of 3 | 70
2B
| Has only played five games since December 27th. Mixed results overall ... but last two games (Feb 17 / 25th) were both solid starts ... two wins ... one via shutout vs Calgary ... stopped 72 of 74 shots he faced Veteran back-up at this stage of his career Butterfly style. Mid-range athleticism. There are times he makes himself 'small' when fronting the shooter and dropping / leans forward or sits 'down' in the butterfly - exposes room over his shoulders. Still has enough game to steal some points for his team on occasion. Expiring contract. Pending UFA. 35 years old. Cap hit = $1.5M - Contract armed with 7 team no trade clause. | Feb. 27, 2024 | Mar. 2, 2024 |
| James Reimer | | G | 35 | 2 of 3 | 69
2B
| Veteran goalie who has hit the wall in recent segment of games. Dating back to starts between December 11th - 27th - he posted a GAA of 4.94 and save percentage of .851 - over five starts. Streaky back up. Good size. Butterfly style. Average quickness. Team looking to acquire Reimer is banking on his veteran experience and ability to adjust to new surroundings - while providing spot duty positive starts. The kind of goalie who is best when the group in front of him is tight and organized. | Jan. 4, 2024 | Jan. 7, 2024 |
| Trey Augustine | | G | 18 | 5 of 5 | A-
1B
| Augustine has now won two world championships representing Team USA - U18 and U20 Proven winner who is excelling at every stop on his development path Not especially tall - but big body who takes up a ton of net Tracks well. Almost never outside his posts. Rebound control is strong. Rarely provides many second chances against. Good gloves. Crease composure / positioning allows pucks to find him through screens. Battles. Trending up. At the WJC in Gothenburg he ended with a 1.75 GAA and .936 save percentage. | Jan. 5, 2024 | Jan. 6, 2024 |
| Axel Sandin Pellikka | | RD | 18 | 2 of 2 | A-
P1
| Top pairing 'D' for Team Sweden heading into the WJC. Elite skater Transitional defenceman. Power-play quarterback. Elusive. Escapes pressure with his skating ability. Average plus defender. Handling weight in the trenches can be an issue at times. At his best when he pressures with an active stick and jumps to space faster than opponents. Leans distributor more than shooter. Primary elements are speed and skill. | Dec. 21, 2023 | - |
| Alex DeBrincat | | RW | 25 | 3 of 3 | 80
L1
| Debrincat scored 27G - 39A in 82GP for Ottawa last season. He was a (-31) In his first 25GP for the Wings he scored 13G-11A and was a (+7) He's on pace to easily eclipse his PPG from last year ... and more importantly (arguably) his three zone play / detail / effort off the puck has improved exponentially. Pure offense - averages around 18:00 TOI - ES 14:00 - PP 4:00 Aggressive getting pucks to the net. Dangerous shooter on the power-play. Adding Patrick Kane to the Wings lineup could lead to another level off offense from Debrincat. He and Kane were line mates together in Chicago and both feed off each other. | Dec. 7, 2023 | Dec. 9, 2023 |
| Alex DeBrincat | | RW | 25 | 2 of 3 | 83
L1
| Riding a hot stick to start the (23/24) season. Compliments Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond. Element is easy to identify. Goal scorer. Offensive zone awareness / vision to find open space. When he gets clean looks at the net he is more likely to score than waste his chances. 39% shooting percentage through first seven games. Can frustrate defensively but his offense wins out. F1 averaging 17:43 TOI - 14:33 ES - 3:09 PP - does not PK. Pure offense. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Joseph Veleno | | C | 23 | 1 of 1 | 81
L3
| Off to a fantastic start in (23/24). Producing offense. Driving the play in transition. Competing in all three zones. Noticeable every time he rolls over the boards. Averaging 14:14 TOI - 13:24 ES - 0:44 PK - doesn't have a role on the PP Capable of more minutes if he continues his current trend. Disruptive as F1 on the forecheck. Locks onto his man in the defensive zone. There are moments he is a bit hectic in relation to the scenario ... but pulling him back could result in a step back in his overall impact. On the rise. Winning 56% of his draws. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Daniel Sprong | | RW | 26 | 1 of 1 | 73
L3
| Polarizing player. Was projected as a potential 1F in his draft year. Offensively talented. Has the ability to play the game fast and be a threat off the rush. Leans shooter more than distributor. Issues arise with consistency and off the puck effort and detail. His best shifts are dangerous in relation to his element but when he isn't scoring his impact fall off. Averaging 13:37 TOI - 12:05 ES - 1:31 PP - does not PK - does not provide physicality. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Dylan Larkin | | C | 27 | 1 of 1 | 89
FP
| High end talent. Plays the game quick and fast. Motion player who is difficult to contain. Play driver in open ice.

Averages 19:06 TOI - 14:02 ES - 3:04 PP - 1:59 PK Jumps to take away time and space on the PK. Averaging 53% in the face-off circle.

| David Perron | | LW | 35 | 2 of 2 | 77
L2
| Veteran forward who continues to produce offense. Averages 15:34 TOI - 12:27 ES - 3:07 PP - Does not PK Has never been a fast skater. He has average pace for the NHL game. What he has in spades is high end hockey sense. He recognizes how plays are developing. Goes to the net looking for tips and rebounds. Battles for space along the boards and in the trenches. Great mitts. Especially in tight quarters. Quick release. Minutes at ES are trending down overall but he remains a dangerous threat to score. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Jonatan Berggren | | RW | 23 | 1 of 1 | 72
L4
| Depth forward at ES but slides into one of the Wings PP units as a shooter. Quick out of the blocks. Once he plains out he isn't a burner. His first three steps provide him a head start on opponents. Stocky build. Not physical. Energetic. Provides second layer of offense. Detail ranges. Hectic at times. His read/react and determination to win small battles in the defensive zone can improve. Averaging 9:19 TOI in a limited role - 8:14 ES - 1:05 PP | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| J.T. Compher | | C | 28 | 1 of 1 | 83
L2
| Free agent signing by Detroit in the summer of 2023 Veteran forward. Versatile. Used in all situations. Averaging 19:27 TOI - 14:34 ES - 1:29 PP - 3:23 PK Plays with reliable three zone detail. Good skater. Leans shooter more than play maker. Struggling in face-off circle to start the season. Given the fact he takes key defensive zone draws, especially on the PK, it's an area that requires better results. Not overly physical, but doesn't shy away. Competes. Willing to block shots in D-zone. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Christian Fischer | | RW | 26 | 1 of 1 | 69
L4
| Depth forward who's averaging less then 10 minutes per game TOI. Bulk of his time comes at ES. Sporadically used on the PK. Does not see PP time. Shooter more than playmaker. Average plus skater. Competes. Has push back. Doesn't shy away from engaging contact. Has history of providing some secondary scoring. Limited role, so far, in Detroit. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Michael Rasmussen | | C | 24 | 1 of 1 | 76
L3
| Big body forward who isn't necessarily a power forward as much as he is simply big and long. Bulk of his TOI comes at ES and PK. Averaging 15:58 - 13:49 ES - 2:01 PK Not a threat off the rush / in transition. Average plus skater up to speed. First three steps and edges are somewhat labored for the pace of the NHL game. Extends plays along the boards. Hard to handle out front the net. Shields defenders. On the PK, when he fronts the play, he is hard to make plays around. Blocks shots. More of a bumper than physically imposing. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Andrew Copp | | C | 29 | 2 of 2 | 80
L3

| Lucas Raymond | | LW | 21 | 1 of 1 | 81
L1
| Has found a home on the top line for the Wings at even strength. Plays along side Larkin and Debrincat. Quick. Fast. Skilled. Has the ability to attack off the rush on his own and pull up to make plays. If he elects to chip and chase he has the pace to win race to puck down low. Mostly a motion player. Excellent stick. Equal parts shooter / distributor. Second unit PP. Does not PK. Defensive detail is a work in progress. Averages 16:01 TOI - 14:24 ES - 1:34 PP | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Austin Czarnik | | C | 30 | 1 of 1 | 69
RL
| Minor league recall / 13F Depth forward Plays quick and fast. Very little bump to his game. Some secondary offense at times. Proven scorer at the minor league level.

| Jake Walman | | LD | 27 | 1 of 1 | 83
P3

| Veteran 'D' who leans '2-way / Shutdown'. Big body. Physical. Engaged in the hard areas. Battles to box out opponents around his crease. There are moments, in games, his skating falls off. First three steps, winning races to pucks, are average for the speed of the NHL game. Rarely does he lead the rush or join as an extra layer, but he's capable on occasion. Fronts the play on the PK.

P3
| 2-way 'D' Veteran who is being deployed in the third pairing. Averaging 15:28 TOI - 14:41 ES - 0:12 PP - 0:35 PK Capable with the puck.

Generally keeps his game simple. Low risk. Plays within himself. Contributes some depth offense | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| James Reimer | | G | 35 | 1 of 3 | 71
2B
| Earned a shutout in his first start of the (23/240 season vs. Columbus. Followed up with a win over Calgary, allowing two goals. Veteran goalie. Off to a solid start. Good size but sits low in his butterfly / makes himself smaller in the net. Has the ability to run hot for short periods of time. Not a goalie, at this stage, who can play a high volume of games in a row. Butterfly style. Crease composure ranges. Lateral push is decent but there are times his read/react leads to too much motion in his crease. Battles. Does whatever he can to make a stop. Low net coverage is more reliable than high net due to posture. Tends to get exposed high glove. | Oct. 24, 2023 | Oct. 25, 2023 |
| Ville Husso | | G | 28 | 1 of 1 | 81
1B

Reads the ice very well from the offensive red line into the opposing teams zone. Makes himself available for his line mates. Finds quiet ice in high danger areas and knows how to finish. The kind of offensive talent that can be polarizing at times due to his range of effort defensively and detail off the puck. Offense wins out though. An elite offensive talent when his compete level is running at 100%. | Oct. 18, 2023 | Oct. 21, 2023 |
| Marco Kasper | | C | 19 | 4 of 4 | 83
L3
| Contributes a full 200ft effort - tracks up and down the ice - sound / reliable hockey IQ Quick and Fast - a very good skater who can dart in and out along with transition up ice when space becomes available Competes Can be used in a variety of roles Offensive upside has to be monitored - has not shown top six scoring upside to date but has the look of a player who will break out in time | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |
| Elmer Söderblom | | RW | 22 | 1 of 1 | 79
L3
| Massive player - huge frame - long reach Power forward who give opponents fits when stationed around the crease Once up to speed his skating is sound First three steps will be an area of his game he will have to work on his entire career Sneaky good puck touch - makes plays - has a good release Not a top six NHL forward - but capable 3F who can be deployed on one of the PP units If his small areas quickness improves he could see time on the PK as well | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |
| Cross Hanas | | LW | 21 | 1 of 1 | 77
L3
| 2-way forward who has an offensive element that is more identifiable than his defensive commitment Leans shooter more than distributor Fantastic catch / release - pucks are on an off his stick very quickly - especially on the power-play when stationed at the back door flank Room for added strength Moves well - solid foundation to build upon - has NHL upside | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |
| William Wallinder | | LD | 21 | 1 of 1 | 76
P3
| At first glance he looks like a player who will transition pucks with his skating and lead the rush on his own / create offense - but he doesn't have a history of high end production Fantastic skater - agile and quick - has a long / even stride in open ice Handles the puck well - outlets are generally sound Defending ranges - not at ton of bump / physicality to his game Has size / skating / and puck skill to be an NHL player Leans 2-way 'D' on projection | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |

L2
| To start the 23/23 season he had an outstanding training camp in Detroit Brings energy and compete - combined with vision and skill Reads the play very well - above the puck when his team doesn't have possession in the offensive zone - tracks opponents and creates turnovers Quick stick - has a plan with the puck - makes plays Top 6 NHL forward on projection - Hockey IQ is sound - Has added strength - resulting in more leverage and better quickness / bursts | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |
| Andrew Gibson | | RD | 18 | 2 of 2 | 72
P3
| At his first NHL training camp to start the 23/24 season he showed glimpses of what he cam provide - but also the amount of work that lies ahead Good size - competes - always involved Easy to identity he is a low-risk defender who thinks about defending his zone more than going on offense - Leans 3PD with potential to move up in time - ES and PK / match up defender When time and space allows his outlets are crisp - there are times he waits a fraction too long to move a puck and it gets him in trouble via turnovers or his outlet option breaking down | Sep. 17, 2023 | Sep. 26, 2023 |

T6
| Captain of his junior team in Brandon Rangy centerman who is used all situations - leans offense - average plus defensively Best work comes at ES and the PP. On the PP he is crafty making plays from the half wall and middle bumper position - occasionally slides net front looking for tips and rebounds - has very good hand/eye coordination - makes sneaky plays in tight spaces - Skating can go to another level but he arrives on time - Room for much more strength | Mar. 24, 2023 | Jun. 13, 2023 |
| Noah Dower Nilsson | | C | 18 | 2 of 2 | B+
L3
| His body of work has to be considered when analyzing his U18 tournament and the way his season ended in 22/23. For some reason his ice time came down at the U18's. He was deployed at ES and PP - did not see any time on the PK - averaging just over 12 minutes TOI per game. He ended the event with 2G-4A in 7GP but he went about his business very quietly. When at his best he scores at a high rate versus his own age category - skates well - can be a threat off the rush - and rip pucks from the perimeter at ES and PP | Apr. 30, 2023 | - |

| Transitional / 2-way 'D' - Can lead the rush on his own or distribute and join as an extra layer One of the top defenceman at the year end U18 Worlds in 22/23 . Used in all situations. Averaged over 22 minutes per game. Scored 2G-9A in 7GP Elite skater. Quick and agile. PP QB. A mostly area defender who relies on an active stick and his jump to space. Arrives ahead of opponents and moves pucks effectively. Leans top pairing NHL 'D' on projection. | Apr. 30, 2023 | - |

| Good size defender who leans 2-way / Defensive 'D' - Good skater - not elite Not shy physically - Fronts the puck on the penalty kill - blocks shots He reads the play appropriately in the defensive zone - but his reaction to what is developing has room to improve Average plus puck skill. Takes what is given. Not a player who will take a ton of risk offensively. Leans bottom pairing NHL defender. Compliments a more active 'D' partner | Apr. 30, 2023 | - |

T6
| His offense improved marginally year over year at the SHL level. The biggest improvement came in his overall game management. He was used at ES and PP at Rogle. At ES he played with energy, compete, and reliable three zone detail. When his team didn't have the puck he tracked back responsibly and didn't cut corners defensively. Up ice he looks quicker and faster. His role on the PP was that of middle bumper / side crease playmaker. A competitive 2-way forward who projects to produce secondary offense at NHL level - and can be used in a variety of roles. He didn't PK in SHL but appears capable. | Mar. 24, 2023 | Apr. 3, 2023 |

| Scoring at a high rate playing J20 in Sweden Significant threat on the PP - equal parts shooter and distributor Skates well - can be a threat off the rush Skill to beat opponents 1vs1 - spin off checks along the boards Reliable enough to be used on the PK Trending up - 2-way forward with better than secondary offensive upside for NHL | Feb. 5, 2023 | Feb. 8, 2023 |

| Got the start versus Latvia in Game #1 of WJC Not overly busy but he was focused till the final whistle One goal against from long range, through traffic, that he could have positioned himself better at the top of his crease Crease composure, overall, was sound. Continues to track laterally / post to post very well He will benefit from the WJC experience | Dec. 26, 2022 | - |

| Recent play at the SHL level in Sweden playing for Rogle has showed continued growth in his overall game. He's above the play when his team doesn't have the puck. He takes his check all the way back to his crease. Off the rush he remains a threat off the edge who is willing to take pucks to the net. The majority of his TOI comes at even strength and the power play. Quick stick in traffic. Finds tips and rebounds. 2-way forward. Playing responsibly. | Nov. 3, 2022 | Nov. 20, 2022 |

| Butterfly / Athletic Good feet. Moves well laterally. Reads the play and challenges shooter in high danger areas. Second stop compete is excellent. Rebound control generally reliable. At times he does get sitting too low in his butterfly / opening up space over his shoulders in process. Overall he's an athletic, competitive, mostly structured goalie with NHL upside. | Oct. 28, 2022 | Nov. 7, 2022 |

| Emerging as a player who can be used in a variety of roles More of a shooter than distributor overall Works off the cycle and goes to the net looking for pucks. Displays excellent hand/eye coordination tipping pucks directed on goal from range. Ability to make plays off the rush. Has produced offense at every stop in his career. Added strength required for NHL game but trending positively overall. | Oct. 29, 2022 | Oct. 31, 2022 |

| There is much to like about his game. He has good size with room to add more weight and strength. He can play quick, fast, and attack off the rush. He's also not shy about driving to the hard areas and battling for pucks around the crease. Offense is his element but he has shown he is capable of being deployed in all situations at the J20 level in Germany. Loads of potential but some unknowns based on the level he is playing. He is by far the most dynamic player at the J20 German level. | Oct. 8, 2022 | Oct. 20, 2022 |

| Hulking defender who takes away time and space with his length and stature A sound skater who gets everywhere on time and can, occasionally, lead the rush Gaps up and takes the body Plays with a presence Will compliment a more risky 'D' partner at the NHL level Plays a very reliable 3 zone / 200ft game. Top Pairing 'D' is likely. Trending up. | Aug. 19, 2022 | Aug. 21, 2022 |

| A big body defender who struggled at the hardest time of the year in 21/22 His pace, execution, and overall detail fell off considerably after being traded to Florida from Montreal at the 21/22 trade deadline When he is at his best he plays north of 20:00 in all situations and brings a physical element. By the end of the season he looked tired and had a difficult time defending against the speed rush and in small areas along the wall in his zone. 2-Way 'D' | May 7, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |
| Justin Holl | | RD | 30 | 1 of 3 | 42
P3
| There were several scenarios in 21/2 that he was closer to being a 7th D option than a regular who can play key minutes in hard games. Lost his confidence handling the puck for stretches resulting in far too many turnovers in all areas of the ice Despite his stature he doesn't make up for his lack of detail and execution with an overly physical element. Might be best for a fresh start elsewhere. A 2-way D who will never bring a ton of offense | Feb. 21, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |
| David Perron | | LW | 33 | 1 of 2 | 63

| Continues to produce consistent results offensively. His last three seasons have seen him score 60, 58, 57 points. In 21/22 he scored 11 of his 27 goals on the PP. Has a knack for finding open space. Quick, accurate release. A shooter more than a distributor with the man advantage. Not shy about going to the crease to find tips and rebounds. Skating has never been an element. He plays the game at his pace. Does not penalty kill. Grizzled veteran. A leader. | Mar. 2, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |

| Averaged over 19:00 TOI in 21/22 and was used in all situations in both Winnipeg and NYR. A 'swiss army knife' that can be trusted with three zone detail and off the puck compete. Involved in the hard areas. Doesn't shy away from battling in the trenches. His ability to play up and down the lineup increases his value. Career best offensive results without his defensive detail suffering. Middle / Top 6 Center. | Mar. 2, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |

P2
| Big body defender who logs north of 20:00 TOI and can be used in all situations if required On a contending team he will not be tasked with being used on the power play He can bring protection, to a more active 'D' partner who likes to skate pucks, with his 2-way game. Ended 2021-2022 with uneven play in Florida. His pace, execution, and consistent impact in any one area of his game was average by his standards. Trending towards being a high end #5 more than a #3 defenceman | Jan. 18, 2022 | Jul. 12, 2022 |

| On the rise. When the intensity ramped up in playoffs he displayed the ability to take his game to another level. Over a 10 game playoff segment in April he produced 3g-3a-6pts and was deployed at ES and the PP. His ice time increased and ranged from 12:00 - 19:00 per game. A natural centreman who plays the wing at the SHL level in Sweden. He competes the full 200ft, has a very good stick, extends plays along the boards, goes to the crease looking for tips and rebounds and has vision to lead the PP B/O. A well rounded, potential top 6 forward. | Apr. 26, 2022 | Jul. 1, 2022 |

#1
| Cossa is a new NHL 'big body' goalie who is fluid and athletic for his stature When at his best his crease composure keeps him between his posts and rarely outside the blue paint Cossa has good gloves and quick feet. He does get into trouble when he gets too active and kicks pucks resulting in second chances against He's average playing the puck. Cossa needs time but the foundation is in place to potentially become a #1` at the NHL level | Jun. 24, 2022 | Jun. 30, 2022 |

| Big body defender who has shown he can be used upwards of (25:00) a night. A proven veteran. A presence. Elevates his game in key situations Makes life difficult on opponents in the hard areas (along the wall and out front his net) He can be used in all situations but his primary role is that of a 2-way / Shut Down / Match Up 'D' Moves fine. Capable with the puck. Solidifies a contending teams top 4 in trade scenario. | Mar. 15, 2022 | Mar. 17, 2022 |
| Shayne Gostisbehere | | LD | 28 | 1 of 2 | 63
P3
| AVG TOI (21:55) Being used in all situations. Primarily a 2-way/Transitional 'D' who's element is more on the offensive side of the ledger than the defensive. Equally comfortable distributing and shooting the puck. Skates well. Can attack off the rush and add an extra layer. Bounce back season. Better execution and results. Defending is average. Not the kind of player you want on the ice in key defensive scenarios in playoffs. He adds value in other scenarios. One more year on his contract. | Mar. 5, 2022 | Mar. 8, 2022 |

| It's been a struggle this season. He is suffering through his worst year since 2015-2016 Point production is way down. Plus/Minus is trending negatively. His overall detail in his game has not been sound. Having said that, he has proven that he is capable of much better play than he has shown this year and the entire team has struggled (not just him) A veteran right shot 'D' who can be used in all situations and log upwards of 23:00 of ice time every night. At 34 years of age he still moves well and can make plays with the puck. A much better player than this season has displayed. | Feb. 21, 2022 | Feb. 22, 2022 |

| Good skater A threat to make plays off the rush Prefers to shoot the puck instead of distribute but is capable of both Being used regular shift and on the power play Room for more strength Has a history of producing offense at every level he has played If overall detail improves he has skill set to potentially sneak into a top 6 role | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |

| Big body defender who will need to work on his explosiveness and up to speed pace overall Thinks the game well Long reach Good hands / distributor / sees the ice and makes sound decisions with his outlets Not overly physical. Leans on opponents and takes away space with his length. Being used regular shift and on the power play. Has the IQ to penalty kill but his agility will need to improve for the role. | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |

| Big body defender with a long reach Takes away time and space with his length Skating will need to improve to keep up with the NHL game Average up to speed but more jump out of the gate is required Provides some physical lean but isn't an punishing defender Mostly simple with the puck on his stick Can be used regular shift and on the penalty kill. Manages the game and generally plays within himself. | Dec. 11, 2021 | Jan. 17, 2022 |

| Infectious player Highly competitive. Works for his production. Skating has room to improve. He has a short stride that could be extended to provide more open ice separation Being used in all situations at the college level.

| Interesting prospect who has a 2-way transitional look to his game Moves well Has ability to skate pucks and elude pressure A distributor on the 2nd PP unit at North Dakota His point production does not reflect how much he handles the puck in games and makes plays An active defender who can be trusted in key defensive scenarios Doesn't cut corners. Used in all situations at the college level. | Dec. 10, 2021 | Jan. 6, 2022 |

| A good size winger with some bump to his game Not shy but not overly physical. His reach is a plus. Showing he can be used a variety of ways at the college level including up top on the PP Has shown ability to extend plays from the hash marks down Some secondary scoring at Wisconsin Skating is not an issue but he could add more open ice separation Reliable hockey IQ. Has time on his side before potentially becoming a pro. | Nov. 27, 2021 | Jan. 2, 2022 |
| Chase Bradley | | C | 19 | 1 of 1 | D+
DP
| Freshman forward who is finding a role at the college level. A depth forward option at this stage. Brings energy and enthusiasm. Not shy. He finishes his checks and battles to win pucks along the wall. Element is as a potential 2-way forward. Doesn't display an elite element offensively. His production will come off simple hard work and compete. Time on his side to define his game. A young college player at this stage. | Nov. 21, 2021 | Jan. 2, 2022 |
