Schumacher’s game is one of pace. Away from the puck, he’s constantly applying pressure, running into the puck carrier, and creating loose pucks. Simply put, he’s a nuisance. That same mentality drives Schumacher’s offensive game. He sprints down the boards, challenging defenders to a race to the net. On the cycle, he cuts back and uses his bottom hand to fend off defenders, creating lanes to the inside for a shot. He slips pucks through defenders and makes time dashes to the net for rebounds. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
