Mantha is a massive forward who plays with surprisingly little physicality for his stature.
Through 56GP with the Capitals he had only been credited with 31 hits and 21 shot blocks.
He averaged 14:09 TOI with the Caps. All of his ice time came at ES and PP.
Mantha produced 20G - 14A - with seventeen of his goals coming at ES
He's always leaned shooter / goal scorer more than play driver / distributor off the rush.
His length can be an asset along the wall and around the crease when he's corralling pucks.
Hard to defend when fully engaged. Good skater. Credited with 90 shots on goal. (+5) defensively. Generally deployed in a third line role at even strength before slotting into one of the PP units.
Pending UFA. Cap hit $5.7M.
