- Premium
Harding's not overly aggressive with his gap, he mirrors footwork, forces players to the boards, and is difficult to beat down the wall and inside. He let his opponents skate into his range before poking away possession, establishes the false gap before pivoting and closing for the steal. Gets inside the hands and wins positioning, then has the skill to evade pressure. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
