JAKE MUZZIN - Defenseman - 30 - $5MM Cap Hit - UFA in 2022-2023
LAST UPDATED 8/24/19
Jake Muzzin was a crucial add for the Leafs. The Leafs had struggled with defensive depth for a while, so they brought in Muzzin, a two-time Stanley Cup champion and a consistent top-4 defenseman for the past half-decade plus. Muzzin has great size and strength, and is a legitimate asset in the corners and along the boards. He has a long track record of being an impact penalty killer and a strong defensive defenseman. He's a fine skater, but not a burner, but the skating ability he does have allows him to move the puck up the ice decently. He's not some insanely prolific offensive puck moving defenseman, but he's capable in that area and can produce 40 points with a good partner. Muzzin's defense and versatility allows him to be a good #3 defenseman, capable of filling in 20+ minutes on a second pairing and killing penalties as well.
