Leads by example
Not the most naturally skilled scorer in the NHL but his relentless compete and willingness to battle in the trenches separates him from the pack.
Physicality comes in the form of leaning on opponents / setting screens / boxing out defenders along the boards to extend plays.
Averaged 20:09 TOI in (22/23) ES and PP#1 - very rarely used on the PK
Aggressive directing pucks on net. When he gets a lane / look, with the play on his stick, his first instinct is to drive pucks on net (276 SOG last season)
Takes a beating out front the net but never backs down.
