Brother: Jake Oleksiak
Sister: Penny Oleksiak (Olympic Swimmer)
A huge defenseman with terrific reach and strength. Moves very well for a man his size. Has superb agility and athleticism.
Oleksiak can deliver thunderous hits and uses his stick effectively to break up passes.
He also has good hands and puck skills, which could see him blossom into a very solid two-way defenseman.
