Talent Analysis

Although Gordon isn't a particularly big nor physical player, he has above-average passing and shooting skills. A deceptively quick skater, Gordon has good on-ice vision and has exhibited good hockey habits over the years. Gordon has shown over the years that he is willing to go to the net and play along the boards.
Future

Gordon doesn't stand out in a specific category, like height or physical play. However, he has done a good job of minimizing weaknesses in his tenure with the Red Deer Rebel.
 

"This year my goals have changed. I have more of an offensive role this year. Last year I was more of a checking player. I think as I progress with age my role has been changed along with it.
 

I really don't know how it will go. I've been trying to play really well and get (as many points as possible). I want to be able to put myself in good position for the draft coming up." -- Boyd Gordon Boyd is projected to go in the middle to the end of the second round in the NHL Entry Draft by the Prospect Advisor.
