Rapports de dépistage de John Tavares

Skating has become more of a concern in recent years. A move to the wing is possible. Tracking up and down the full 20ft is a heavy lift when playing center.
Elite hockey IQ. Fantastic stick. One of the best players in the game tipping pucks and finding second chances around opponents crease - especially on the PP.
Leans on people / battles to extend plays along the wall. Averaged 17:39 TOI in (22/23) - all at ES and PP. Credited with 112 hits and 36 shot blocks. One of the top face-off men in the NHL - won 58% of his draws. Low maintenance pro. Two years left on massive contract ($11M AAV

Used at ES and on the PP
Fought through a goal scoring slump. He has averaged a PPG over the last 10.
Elite offensively IQ. Great hands. Sees the ice. Can be dangerous offensively ... especially on the PP.
His pace is off and appears to be trending (quickly) in the wrong direction. There are some nights he struggles to keep up with the NHL game overall.

There are nights that he labors and struggles to get around the ice at NHL speed but overall he continues to produce offense. Sees the ice. Doesn't need a lot of time or space to make plays in the offensive zone. Great release. One of the best players 'tipping' pucks. He has elite hand/eye coordination. Defending ranges and it comes down to how fast the opponent plays the game and how well he positions himself defensively. If he is late with zone exits its a struggle to get back the full 200ft. Move to wing in future is likely
Has the ability to take and win key face-offs in all three zones
