WHO HE IS · LONG TERM
Brindley isn't here to put up gaudy point totals; his game is built on a tenacious forecheck and a willingness to battle in the dirty areas, making him a disruptive force that grinds down opponents. While his raw offense might not jump off the stat sheet, his relentless energy and intelligence on the ice are the engine that can spark his line and create opportunities others might miss.
