Bjarnason's legs are his biggest weapon. He consistently takes away the bottom part of the net with them. He uses the overlap technique a lot on rush chances because if there is a back door pass, he has the ability to stretch across and cover the extra space with his pads. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
