Julian Flörsch is a well-rounded player. A former defenseman, turned forward when the team needed some help up front more than they needed him to play as a defense. Being versatile, and having a broad skill set also means that there will always be someone who is better at one particular area of the game. Whether it's skating skills, shooting, passing, the physical aspect, hockey intelligence or even dirty plays; if you're a generalist there will always be a specialist who can beat you if you focus on one aspect of the game.

And that's exactly why Julian tries to have a holistic approach to his games and playing style. He doesn't focus on one aspect of hockey and try to exploit that, but firmly believes that the sum of all his qualities is more than their individual values combined. So even tho someone may be outskating, -shooting, -passing or -hitting Julian, he knows that he is well equipped to handle them by using the combination of all of his skills rather than being a one trick pony.
