Wiesblatt is the definition of a player who is more than the sum of his parts as his physical tools don’t immediately jump off the page and while he isn’t the fastest skater, he doesn’t take any shortcuts. He plays quick with smart and simple puck movement and can carry the puck well into the offensive zone, doing a good job of protecting it in traffic, slowing himself down to let his teammates set up. While he has a pretty good motor, he still lacks that extra gear that will help him find separation. He’s not the biggest player but you won’t see him lose many battles as he plays with a feistiness and edge that few can match and will make an even bigger impact as he fills out his frame. He has a killer instinct when given space and a good sense where his teammates are even when under pressure. His game is full of stops and starts as opposed to superficial loops and he puts a ton of pressure on the opposition puck carrier. He has excellent hand eye coordination and really excels at both plucking the puck off an opponent’s stickhandle and batting passes out of the air. Defensively, he is quick to read the play and react and is active in puck pursuit, angling to gain inside position and using his stick well to limit pass options and strip at pucks. He is a well-rounded player with the puck and has an understated skill level.
