Elias Salomonsson Scouting Report

Easily defined. He's a 2-way 'D' who moves pucks efficiently but isn't a transitional threat or a prospect who will run a PP at the pro level. A solid skater. He's agile and capable in small areas versus skilled opponents. The fact he isn't a transitional threat is his choice. It's the way he approaches the game. He prefers distributing over leading the play on his own.
The kind of defender who can be matched up against top flight opponents at home and on the road. Salomonsson brings a physical element. He gaps up and takes away space.
