A defense-minded defenseman. A long-term project.
Hardworking, two-way forward with a heavy shot and good instincts around the net. Plays with physicality and energy, projecting as an impactful top-six NHLer.
Gruden is a high-energy, high-effort player. He displays excellent vision and passing ability paired with a decent shot. He's a well balanced player who can play a variety of roles.
Most likely a bottom-six center with a moderate offensive ceiling. He is a strong skater and sound positionally. Could play net-front on the power play and kill penalties. Good defensively, which could see him as a passenger on an offensively skilled line. Doesn't shoot much, but should get you a hit every other game.
A big goaltender with strong lateral movement and solid puck-tracking. His positioning is a weakness, and he often finds himself straying from his net, leaving easy opportunities for opposing teams.
Highly-skilled shooter and puck-handler who accelerates every puck he gets. Boom-or-bust project with second-line upside.
A cerebral and effective centre with nasty finishing ability.
Athletic netminder with exceptional reflexes and good size. Franchise goaltender potential who fantasy owners should draft early.
Secure, well-rounded bottom-pairing defenseman with upside to become a number four guy.
Speed-driven, playmaking pivot
