Third, Dewar’s defensive ability and versatility on the ice set him apart. He might not become a flashy scorer, but his commitment to playing a responsible two-way game has earned him recognition. For me, that means he can contribute to different aspects of the game, including penalty-killing and defensive responsibilities. These are huge playoff needs for any team that wants to survive the toughness of the context. They might make him a valuable asset for any team.
Sometimes in NHL hockey, under-the-radar acquisitions become game-changers for their respective teams. Might Connor Dewar be one of those additions to the Toronto Maple Leafs’ roster?
While his name might not yet be a head-turner for Maple Leafs fans, there are reasons to believe Dewar could be a surprisingly strong pickup for the Maple Leafs. He might be a head-turner come the team’s needs for the postseason.
Perhaps, I like particular types of players. I was a Bobby McMann pundit and supported his rise to the team. He’s done well. Dewar is the kind of young player I root for. He fits a particular need on this team and he comes at a low cost.
I also see the possibility of re-signing him if he works out. He’s the kind of unassuming player I like. I believe they can emerge as unexpected heroes. Here’s saying that Dewar could become a surprise asset that helps his team move toward the goal of playoff success.
I’m keeping a close eye on his play. I wonder if he might just become a hidden gem who might shine brightest during the playoffs.
