WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT LUKE
"Mittelstadt’s primarily a transition player, showing skill on both sides of the puck. On the breakout, he manipulates forecheckers with deception and fakes, then passes to the open target. He uses the inside lane consistently, often in motion. By mapping out his options before receiving the puck, he’s a precise one-touch passer, often stretching the ice in the process."-Elite Prospects
"A technically sound defenseman, Mittelstadt has only just begun his professional development. A two-way player and a great skater, his strengths are in his transition game, as his edgework and puck control allow him to generate rushes and execute clean breakouts. Incredibly composed under pressure, Mittelstadt is a good puck-handler with great vision. He’s able to stretch the ice with precise passes and often uses creative fakes to create space for himself and his teammates."
-Josh Kim, The Hockey Writers
