The player.
WHO HE IS · LONG TERM
Simon Benoit is the definition of a blue-collar defenseman, an undrafted 6'4", 210-pound wall whose value comes purely from his ability to shut down opponents. With a career offensive clip of just 0.02 goals and 0.08 assists per game, he's not on the ice to light up the scoreboard, but to eat pucks, win board battles, and ensure his net is protected at all costs.
