I Analyzed Michael Kesselring — Potential Sharks' X Factor

San Jose signed Michael Kesselring to three years at $4.5M. So I graded two games: his best night — the Gordie Howe hat trick in Utah — and his last game in Buffalo at the end of a season that got away from him. Seven of eight grades dropped by exactly one point. The only thing that didn't move was his size. Every category that fell is something confidence and reps control — reads, effort, gap, touches. None of it is a skill he lost. That's the case for why his offense is untapped, and why the Sharks may have gotten a steal. I go through the tape shift by shift: puck retrieval, the first pass, the goal, the physical game, and the one real concern nobody should skip past. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 — Michael Kesselring stats 0:23 — Utah vs Buffalo: the numbers with GamerunAI 0:40 — tape breakdown 12:15 — The goal 13:00 — Physicality and the Gordie Howe hat trick 13:14 — The honest take 14:23 — Like and Subscribe 📊 Grades pulled with GameRun — detailed AI game film analysis: https://partner.gamerun.ai/jasondemers 🏒 THE BITE — breakdowns from a guy who played 13 years in the league.
