Note: Reports prior to Sept 2023 were originally graded out of ten, and also included additional categories that have been merged into the current categories.
This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

Bourgault is developing nicely in the AHL with Bakersfield. He is averaging over (15:00) TOI and producing his share of offense - especially for his first full season as a pro -
He continues to display his quick strike impact offensively. When he gets pucks in scoring areas he releases them to the net before defenders, and goalies get set to defend. His battle as F1 is better than average. He isn't a heavy player but he is showing willingness to bump and battle along the boards. Most impressive has been his attention to detail defensively. He is above the play when his team doesn't have the puck and supports well in his zone.
