Pekarcik is a strong left-handed forward and a very good skater for his size. In my opinion, Pekarcik was very strong on both sides of the puck in this game. He is reliable defensively and positions himself very well above the puck. He backchecks hard and smart, looking to cut the most dangerous option for opponent. Thanks to his speed, size, and will to win the puck, his forecheck was relentless....
