David Savard

A defensive defenseman, David Savard is a hard guy to play against. Competes, strong along the boards and comes often as a winner out of the most battles. Stands his ground and is hard to knock off balance. Savard is a shot-blocking machine and will sacrifice his body in order to help the team. Although he tends to focus too much on blocking shots, that he misses his defensive assignments. Possesses a strong stick and wins most of his stick-battles. David Savard is a great defensive addition to a team’s shutdown-pair and is leading by example with his on-ice play. (by Rafik Soliman, January 2024)
