NHL Rights: Philadelphia Flyers / Signed
Drafted: 2023 round 1 #22 overall by Philadelphia Flyers
Agency: Premium

A prototypical shutdown defenceman, Bonk safeguards his team by backtracking ahead of offensive turnovers, blocks access to the defensive zone, forces opponents to dump the puck around him, and then seals the puck from them on the back wall. He pushes attackers wide in the defensive zone and scans the ice behind him to stop backdoor plays. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
