OHL Central Scouting says:
Brayden is one of the leaders on his team and shift in shift out he leads by example. He is a powerful skater that is fun to watch in open ice when he is in full stride. He generates the majority of his offense off the rush and by constantly taking the puck to the scoring areas. He is committed to playing a 200-foot game and doesn’t cheat in order to create offense. He uses his solid frame to his advantage and plays an in your face style of game.
