Rapport de dépistage de Matthew Kessel

A solid all round prospect who is used in all situations at the college level.
Outlets well. Sees the ice. Has the ability to spin off pressure and make plays.
In the offensive zone he can distribute and release pucks to the net from range.
When playing his off-side he struggles to clear pucks on his back hand.
Overall he is a reliable 2-way defender who manages the game well.
Additionally he brings good size and range.
Not likely to produce high rate of offense as a pro.
