8/13/23 MHA Showcase – A little light for the age group but it doesn’t stop him from being successful. Polyviou is really good along the walls, very engaged and quick to jump into the mix. Has a tendency to take the initiative and be F1 on a forecheck, applies good pressure on the opposing D.…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – Not big, not small for the birth year. Plays with real great pace, plays fast, and can make things happen at top speed. He’s pretty active in all three zones, constantly around the puck and makes good things happen when he gets a stick on it.

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – Very rangy defenseman that’s able to get a stick on a lot of pucks. Certainly a challenge for attackers to try and get around. His skates aren’t amazing but still pretty good for the age level. Nothing flashy with the puck on his stick but is effective moving the play and…

8/13/23 MHA ShowcaseHe’s got a real solid frame and decent footwork to go along with it. He used good gap control to play and defend passing lanes. Did a nice job of breaking up oncoming attacks. Burny did have a tendency to get tunnel vision while head-manning the puck and skated himself into trouble at…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – I thought he had a pretty quiet weekend at the MHA Showcase, but not in a bad way necessarily. Hajji has really good size and his footwork is decent. He was very functional with the puck on his stick and kept things relatively simple. A defender that does a lot of…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – Keeps a really tight gap in all three zones. Allows him to be very involved in the offense in the OZ, and plays right in the forward’s grill as they try breaking out of the zone. That gap forced a lot of blue-line turnovers. Same thing breaking out of the D-zone.…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – Okay size, he’s not huge but he fits for the age level. Plays kinda deep in his crease, would like to see him get on top of the paint. If its in the zone, he’s tracking regardless of who has the puck or how clean possession is for his teammates; I…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – Not very big, but not many are at this age level. He moves pretty well and does a nice job of squaring up to shooters. Pretty fluid laterally, doesn’t give up a ton of second chances. Powerful movement from his feet and snaps side to side, snaps back up into his…

8/13/23 MHA Showcase – He’s got good speed with the puck on his stick but a little lackadaisical without it. Definitely got better as the weekend went on, saw some moments where he engaged in scrums and was a bit more busy without the puck. Had a real nice moment where he went outside-inside with…
