The Pro Hockey Group
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.

Kubalik is a pending UFA. His contract carries a cap hit of $2.5M.

In his first 55 games, this season, he contributed 9G-4A
He averages 12:30 TOI at even strength and the power play.
A team looking to take on the risk of acquiring Kubalik is banking on him contributing more offense than he has - especially on the power-play.

Risk/Reward acquisition.

Kubalik has not produced the kind of offense the Senators were hoping he would contribute when they acquired him from the Detroit Red Wings.
Through 43GP he had only produced 9G-3A - Averaged 13:46 TOI - 11:30 even strength and 2:16 on the power-play. He doesn't have a role on the penalty kill. In fact, he struggles defensively overall and has posted a (-20) rating in the forty-three games.
In his most recent 20 game segment, before the All-Star break he scored 4G-2A and posted a (-10) rating.
Kubalik is on an expiring contract that carries and AAV of $2.5M.
Any team interested in acquiring him at the trade deadline is hoping he might find his game offensively and produce in a secondary role. 4th line forward at even strength. Has the skill to land on, potentially, a second power-play unit.

Projection: Third Line
Trending: Under NHL Contract
Part of the trade that sent Alex Debrincat to the Detroit Red Wings
A good size forward who has a history of being a streaky scorer. In (22/23) he averaged 14:54 TOI with all of his ice time coming at ES and PP.
Does not bring much in the way of physicality. Defensive detail ranges.
His most attractive element is his ability to come up with timely offense.
