Holden Wouters

Composed two-way defender whose reads, mobility and first pass give him an early NHL-style foundation.

Wouters is more about efficiency than flash. He keeps a good gap, arrives on time defensively and usually makes the simple first play that gets his team moving the other way. His mobility is good enough to support transition without needing to overhandle the puck. Because the public sample is limited, the offensive projection remains uncertain. If he adds more assertiveness with the puck while preserving the defensive reliability, his stock could rise quickly.
