He pinches up, leaves no space to opponents, shows good posture, and tight gaps. He does the same in the defensive zone: good check identification and check attachment, and even risk mitigation. Schmitt’s proactivity and aggressiveness defensively show that he cares about that facet of the game. Few opponents can beat him in the neutral zone or in races to the net. He’s always right there, ready to pick them up in their course. -EliteProspects 2022 NHL Draft Guide
