Very good 3c as a shutdown centre. Matches up against every opponents top centre each night and always limits them.
Very good penalty killer, on faceoffs and plays on the power play as the in the crease role.
Only thing he lacks is scoring more goals. Will probably reach a peak of 20 in a season. If he got to 25 each year he would be in the elite class for two way centres.
The stars may think of moving him on in the off season as i think they see jason dickinson in that role, and slightlt cheaper which will be important when the stars need to pay hintz,heiskanen and gurianov...but personally i see faksa as invaluable and hope he stays.
I think hes worth a 1st rd pick at a trade deadline to a contender needing a genuine shutdown centre.
