A high-activity defenceman, Schmidt is always noticeable. He joins every rush, building quick give-and-gos into his breakouts to advance his team as a unit. If given space, he takes the middle instantly, where the handling skill really shines. He creatively pulls pucks through and around traffic, chains dekes straight into shots, and constantly confuses back pressure when using his hands in unison with his edges. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
