I think that Carter Crutchfield can up his game in the playoffs by just playing his game. Although Anchorage may have missed the playoffs this season, Crutchfield's game is playoff built. Physical, blocking shots while still being solid on both sides of the ice is so valuable for any team to have in the playoffs. Crutchfield has a lot of experience in the SMJHL, playing all of 3 seasons in the Alaska capital city. However, Crutchfield needs to get to the playoffs to be a better player in the playoffs. Crutchfield could level up his game by being even more physical and harder to play against, as not giving the other team's star player any chances to shine and to nullify them defensively would be the best course of action. All in due time as Crutchfield continues to develop as a player. Will he eventually get to this level? Only time will tell.
