Philip Broberg Scouting Reports

NOTE: Updated player skill attribute scores are in comparison to his peer group at the AHL level.

Has spent the majority of the year at the AHL level playing with the Condors and he's much improved overall.
Much more confident executing with the puck. Distributing very well on the PP. Calm and composed under pressure. Uses his skating and agility to escape pressure and make plays. Directs plays on net or finds open team mates through seams.
As mentioned, skating remains an element that works in his favor. Good size, but not physical.
His willingness to 'box out' around his crease and engage physically to keep pucks out of danger areas around his net remains average.
2-way / Transitional 'D' at the AHL level - PP QB - being used in all situations - average plus defensively.
In his first 27GP in Bakersfield - 1G-17A (+13

His development has been slow to arrive as a consistent NHL defenceman who can be trusted in a regular role.
Big body who moves well - Came into the league projected as a potential transitional defenceman who could man one of the PP units. Instead he is being deployed at ES and some PK when he plays. Skated in 46 regular season games in (22/23) - averaged 12:36 TOI. In playoffs, when he did dress, he averaged only 6:53 TOI.
Undefined - needs to solidify a role - puck play needs to be more consistent and reliable - has to show more detail on and off the puck defensively. A work in progress.
