Avery was the leading force offensively for his squad in this tournament. I thought he dictated play whenever he was out there and displayed a ton creativity with the puck. He seemed to marvel at the opportunity to take on a defenseman 1v1, and for the most part, was able to beat the man by putting the puck into space and tying up the defender’s ability to knock the puck away. After creating separation, Watson took pucks to the net with authority and was rewarded with many goals from the crease area. One play specifically, he beat the defender wide, cut back in and flipped the puck around the defender before batting the puck out of the air and into the net.
