Victor Mete just had another very good game against the Anaheim Ducks. In the last few weeks, he has consistently been one of the Montreal Canadiens’ best defencemen, pushing his effectiveness to a new level.
The elements that made him successful in Junior hockey are clearly on display. He uses his speed to his advantage: he jumps on the attack and gets back down in time to make great use of his stick to break plays off the rush and in-zone. But now, those strengths are augmented by a lot of confidence since coming back from his stint with Joël Bouchard and the Laval Rocket.
