Ali isn’t perfect as no player here is; he can be tunnel visioned on net drives, he isn’t overly dynamic with the puck and attacks in straight lines; however, he’s a gamer,— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022
he plays hard and physical and is tough to defend and he outworked everyone he went up against which points to a high ceiling.— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022
In one shift he toe dragged an opponent, zipped a cross ice pass on tape, he leveled a defender on the forecheck and took him off his feet and beat out an icing with pure effort and speed.”— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022

The fitness portion of the combine includes 12 stations designed to measure strength, athleticism, and endurance. The most famous are the VO2max and Wingate tests, two resistance-based bike tests that require a vomit bucket in close proximity.— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022
Below are some of the standouts:
• Forward Brennan Ali, who is committed to the University of Notre Dame next season, tied for the best score in the VO2 max (with Finnish forward Toppi Ronni) and placed second in mean power output on the Wingate.— Sarah Lindenau (@Lindy72) July 8, 2022
