Mattias Havelid's Player Profile

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - June 29th: "Adding strength is a necessity, especially when it comes to playing in his end, but Havelid has all the qualities of a future NHL power-play quarterback."

Alexa Potack - Dobber Prospects - June 18th: "His size is a detriment to his ability as a defenseman but he has still proven talent in the defensive zone. While he doesn’t have an overwhelmingly physical style, he does not shy away from blocking a shot or using his body to separate an opponent from the puck."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 6th: "He plays tight gaps, he’s confident in control, he’s got great poise on both sides of the puck, and everything is executed cleanly and decisively. He knows when to pick his spots to attack and then has the tools (including a great wrister) to make things happen."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 31: "He has the skating ability to jump into attacks and activate off the blue line to create offense with his skill. Havelid can find seams and create with his playmaking consistently."

Chris Peters - Daily Faceoff - June 10th: "A crafty skater with excellent edges and an ability to escape pressure, Havelid can make a lot of plays with his feet. He has a good shot and makes solid reads, aiding the transition and setting up chances for his teammates in the offensive zone."
