Parker Bell

Along the boards, Bell shows skill and intelligence. He waits for the defender to arrive, throws out a quick fake, then turns in the opposite direction. With the defender on his back, he shows finesse to attack the inside and a bit of playmaking to find teammates on the inside lane. Bell’s defensive impact comes in the same manner: motor and intelligence. He out-works players in pursuit. Off-puck, he supports down low, scans for threats, and sprints to close distance. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
