Jack Drury, C, Växjö Lakers HC (Carolina Hurricanes)
Jack Drury’s consistency throughout his first year in Sweden has been unbelievable. Despite being injured for almost a month earlier this year, when he missed 11 contests, he has maintained great performances and continues doing so in the playoffs. After four outings, the 21-year-old American recorded one tally and four points with an average ice time of 17:44.
I have liked what I have seen from him so far. Drury is the type of player who craves for the puck in the offensive zone, which is so much fun to watch. He loves to have the game under control. He often cruises all around the ice with the puck just glued to his stick. I love his ability to set the tone of the game just by using his great play-driving talents.
Even when we look at his possession stats, we can see that he has been just dominating around the opponent’s net. Throughout the four-game period in the playoffs, he has helped the Lakers immensely. Växjö has fired almost 55 shot attempts per 60 minutes with Drury on the ice while allowing just slightly over 37 of them on the other end of the rink. That makes it for an excellent 59.55 Corsi for percentage. Lakers have also been shooting almost 12 attempts per 60 minutes more with Drury in the middle of the action. He is a beast when it comes to managing the game, and he proves it every night.’
