Michael Buchinger's Player Profile

Dobber Prospects - June 18th: "Smooth-skating defender who moves the puck efficiently and knows when to activate offensively."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 6th: "Defensively, he’s got a good stick that he leads with to disrupt carriers, and a physical edge that he’s comfortable falling back on as a backup to close out. He surprised scouts with his vision inside the offensive zone and overall defensive polish as a rookie."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 31: "He can skate pucks out of trouble and can close gaps on checks well. Buchinger shows good flashes of skill and offensive playmaking, especially off the rush."

Chris Peters - Daily Faceoff - June 10th: "He has crafty puck skills that allow him to escape pressure or make plays under duress. Those good skills suggest to me that there’s a lot of offensive upside in his game."
