Note: Reports prior to Sept 2023 were originally graded out of ten, and also included additional categories that have been merged into the current categories.
This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

Playing to his strengths / identity to start the season in Detroit
Average TOI 19:58 - 15:29 ES - 3:04 PP#1 - 0:55 PK
Quarterbacks the top PP unit. Sees the ice. Sound distributor. Makes plays. When lanes open up he isn't shy about directing pucks on net. Through his first 7GP he's scored 2PPG - 4PPA.
'Transitional D'. Quick to space. Can lead the rush or join as an extra layer. Average defender. Gives up size and strength when engaged physically. Relies on quickness to jump to space ahead of opponents.

Contract: $27,000,000 over 6 years (Cap hit: $4,500,000)
Position scouted: Left Defense
Age when scouted: 28
Projection: Third Pair
Trending: Up
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.
