Ryan Leonard's Player Profile

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 7th: "With Leonard, they get a hard-nosed player who can score and has the kind of character to battle through any and all adversity."

Tony Ferrari - The Hockey News - June 5th: "He attacks the middle in the offensive zone, skating downhill at defenders with speed and power while having the requisite skill level to dangle opponents when necessary. Leonard shows the most defensive aptitude of any of the NTDP’s top-line players, using his strength and physicality to his advantage, but his positional play must continue to improve."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 5th: "He’s a versatile, powerful, high-RPM player who makes things happen when he’s on the ice and pulls teammates into the fight with his scrappy, competitive, never-stop style. He’s not just the energy guy though, either."

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 1st: "Despite average height, Leonard is a legitimate power winger who plays the game hard, fast and with more than enough skill to produce at a high level. With 51 goals this season, Leonard showed lethal scoring ability as well as good sense of how to get to the good scoring areas."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 30th: "Looking at the keys to the offseason for the Florida Panthers, they pending free agents for the next two years and salary cap projections"

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - May 29th: "Leonard is coming off an absolutely ridiculous U-18 tournament, which was capped off by scoring the championship winner. The seven-game affair was a perfect microcosm of Leonard’s true abilities: good speed, skill and physicality all wrapped into one. "

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - May 5th: "Threat off the rush, as a playmaker or shooter. Elusive and with an elite brain offensively. Average plus in all three zones. Tracks back to assist defensively. On time offensive zone exits."
