MARK PYSYK - Defenseman - 27 - $2.73MM Cap Hit - UFA in 2020-2021
LAST UPDATED 3/7/19
A 7 year veteran, Pysyk has long been a stabilizing, underrated defensive defenseman. While he definitely isn't flashy, and plays a style that's most effective when fan's don't notice him, he provides his value through his versatility and calming effect on a defensive corps. He's not going to score more than 20 points per game, and should stay away from the puck as possible, but when he's paired with an offensive partner he can be trusted to defend the net adequately should his partner get caught in the offensive zone on a risky offensive maneuver. He isn't a Karlsson-level defensive defenseman, but he can definitely hold his own in his own end and kill penalties reliably. Going forward, Pysyk is right in the thick of his prime, but given his utter lack of offense he's likely a strong #5 at this point or a good #4 if paired with an offensive partner.
