SCOUTING REPORT · AI, FROM THE NUMBERS
The player.
WHO HE IS · LONG TERM
Keegan Kolesar's stat line—around 0.1 goals and 0.18 assists per game with just over 11 minutes of ice time—clearly defines him as an impact player beyond the scoresheet. This 6'2", 216-pound forward is the embodiment of a heavy-hitting, forechecking disruptor, a player whose true value lies in his relentless physicality and making opponents pay for every inch of ice.
