Ruck plays a tactical, give-and-go-fuelled game. The puck is never on his stick for long, slipping pucks under sticks, backhanding them across the slot, and initiating intricate passing plays. When combined with his foresightful off-puck movement, the puck seems to flow through him for shifts at a time.
