Matthew Morden Facts
- NHL Rights
Utah Mammoth / Unsigned
Has a hard one-timer with strong mechanics -- arms unlocked and infront, releases through his knee. He activates off the puck, joins the rush, and anticipates openings before many defencemen. Took on the entire team himself in one sequence, attacking the middle and then playing keep away before getting to the net. Flows between different ideas, whether that’s joining the rush after defending or activating off-puck into the slot and then passing to the inside. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
