Saari is a big-bodied, physical defensive defenceman with projectable skating ability, a robust defensive game, and flashes of excellence in transition, too. He combines his footwork with calculated aggression as a rush defender and kills plays relentlessly in the defensive zone through his physicality. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
