Kashawn Aitcheson's Player Profile

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - June 10th: "He’s a good skater with strong enough hands and hockey sense to make plays at higher levels and a solid point shot too. Aitcheson won't run a power play, lacking the natural sense at times with the puck, but he projects to have secondary NHL offense and has put up significant offense this year."

Adam Kimelman - NHL.com - June 9th: "Aitcheson brings an entertaining mix of offensive skill and brute strength that makes him a nightmare to play against, similar to Charlie McAvoy of the Boston Bruins or Jacob Trouba of the Anaheim Ducks."

Mike Morreale - NHL.com - June 9th: "He was third among OHL defensemen with 26 goals and seventh with 59 points in 64 games, and had 21 power-play points (nine goals, 12 assists). Defensively, he's fierce, gets in the face of his opponents and is physically engaged."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 2nd: "He’s a powerful, bullish defender who is hard to play against, defends firmly and commands his ice. He knows who he is and plays with confidence and aggression, often directing his teammates and always talking (to his teammates and opponents). He’s strong on the PK."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - May 27th: "His physicality is the best attribute of his game because he’s willing to get involved with just about anyone. Aitcheson finished the regular season with 26 goals and 59 points while registering 88 penalty minutes – making him a brutal player to deal with every time he hit the ice."

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - March 26th: "Kindel has a role as a power play quarterback, which speaks to his vision and playmaking ability. Despite his current size, Kindel isn’t shy about taking the puck to the net off the rush or setting up around his opponent’s net searching for tips and rebounds."

Smaht Scouting - March 23rd: "Kindel is a smart, versatile forward who is always in the right position and a constant factor in all three zones and all situations. He has an impressive small-area game, hanging onto pucks and drawing pressure before finding teammates with precision through tight lines."
