Armit’s game is centered around his ability to leverage his strength around the perimeter in the offensive zone to come out on top in puck battles and initiate the cycle game. Once he won the puck, he showed really strong puck protection abilities to circle the zone, work his way through the hands of defenders and make smart plays with the puck. He flashed some high-end puck skills at times where he was able to beat multiple defenders off the halfwall, gain access to the middle of the ice and get a shot off from the slot. His power game below the goal line was another positive aspect of his game, making hard cuts to the front of the net looking to cause havoc in the crease area and funnel pucks to the middle of the ice in the process. He’s a player who could really explode offensively this year with the proper development.

Quiet for the first two periods, Armit really came alive in the third and started to showcase his intriguing size and skill combination. When things started to click for him, he was able to dominate along the boards in the offensive zone, using his frame to consistently come out on top in puck battles and make hard cuts from below the goal line to the front of the net to generate chances in front. There were a couple of times where he was able to leverage his skill to get around defenders off the halfwall and attack the middle of the ice to get a shot off from the slot.
