Mobile blue liner with a potent physical edge, Crozier projects as a two-way puck-moving defenseman that likely tops out as a third pairing defender.
Effective second or third pairing defenseman. Better real life defender than fantasy defender. Has upside for shots and blocks but isn't very physical.
Raw offensive upside with a heavy shot from the blueline; could take plenty of seasoning in the minors before he's ready to make the jump to the NHL.
Undersized puck-moving defenseman with high offensive upside. Likely a future power-play QB.
A solid defender, with decent tools and a good IQ. He isn't great at anything but doesn't lack in one specific area of his game either.
An offensive puck-moving defenseman who can skate well and uses his skating abilities to his advantage defensively.
Puck-rushing defender who provides an extra option in the offensive zone. Plays a strong defensive game and owns a heavy accurate shot
Offensive minded defenseman who has some bite to his game but sometimes takes unnecessary risks.
A mobile defender with above-average tools across the board whose offensive production has been muted by playing against men as a teen. Boom-bust potential.
