report from EP draft guide

Gruba’s a physical presence, launching him into opponents who venture too close to his side of the rink, whether that’s in the neutral zone, at the blue-line, or along the end boards. A tight neutral zone gap funnels attackers to the outside. In transition, Gruba uses small-area plays through opponents and occasionally manipulates with a quick change of pace to open a passing lane. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
