Coach’s Corner

Zach is a hard worker with a strong compete level in games and practice. He has improved his 1v1 defense (not focusing on the puck as much) but is still an area for improvement. Zach is doing a great job running the powerplay with his head up and being mobile. He has shown the ability to be a dominant 2 way defenseman when he gets his feet moving and head up.
