Brants turned defence into offence a couple of times this game, breaking rushes in his zone to attack the offensive end. His skating recovery is a bit wide, but he outskated most on the ice, even attempting to cut to the net on one of his rushes. Brants' gap is a bit tighter than the rest of the Bathurst defence. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
