Oleksiak notched an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.
Scouting Report
One of the NHL's largest defensemen (6'7", 255 pounds) has tremendous strength and enormous reach, making him a tough obstacle for opposing attackers to deal with. He skates well for someone his size, and his puck-possession numbers can be solid, though he will never be an offensive force. Will step up for his teammates but has to avoid needless penalties.
Long Range Potential: Mammoth defenseman.
