Name a defensive skill, and Bednarik probably has it. He’s energetic, but controlled. He rotates, supports, and engages at the right moments. When he battles opponents, he’s always looking to win body positioning first, using his stick or free hand to slow down the opponent if required. He throws big hits, blocks shots, and does whatever it takes to win. -EliteProspects 2024 NHL Draft Guide
