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.

2-way 'D' who is being used in all situations for the Flyers. Top pairing in Philly. Lands somewhere between first and second pairing on most teams in the league.
Skates heavy minutes - averaging around 25:00 TOI per game.
Matches up against top lines.
Tall. Lean. Some push back physically but not overpowering.
Uses his long reach as an asset.
Good skater. Has the legs to join the rush as an extra layer. Leans distributor on the PP more than shooter. There are some uneven nights defensively, but when a player logs the kind of ice time he does there are bound to be some mistakes at times.

AVG TOI (22:36)
Deployed at ES, PK, and 2nd PP unit. Big body.
Has the legs to join the rush as an extra attacker. In the offensive zone opponents need to be aware of him. He's active. He will pinch down and find open space in the slot or extend plays.
Defensively his length / long reach is an asset keeping the play to the outside. Not punishing
On the PK he could be quicker with his read/react/jump to lanes
Capable of more minutes on the PP. 2-way D with sneaky offensive element.
