Key Strengths

3 Areas
  • Ellie Meunier is a highly intelligent and reliable two-way defenseman whose game is built on a strong foundation of exceptional defensive awareness and smart puck distribution.
  • Her positioning, gap control, and decision-making are her most valuable assets, making her a stabilizing presence on the back end.
  • She consistently makes high-percentage plays and demonstrates a maturity in her game well beyond her years.

Opportunities

3 Areas
  • Explosive Skating — Incorporate off-ice plyometrics and on-ice power skating drills focused on improving the first three strides. This will enhance her ability to close on opponents, retrieve pucks more quickly, and create separation on breakouts.
  • Shot Power & Release — Dedicate time to improving shooting mechanics to generate more velocity from the point. Working on a quicker release for her snap shot will make her a more significant offensive threat and force opponents to respect her shot.
  • Dynamic Puck Control — While her puck protection is solid, working on more advanced puck handling skills will build confidence to carry the puck under pressure and create more offensive opportunities rather than just deferring with a pass.
