“Mutryn was one of my favorite American-born prospects this season. I like his physicality and work ethic and think that could allow him to be a decent third-liner. He’s smart, battles hard and has the ability to find chemistry with just about everyone. Although I don’t think his ceiling is that high, I feel confident Mutryn will be an NHLer. Most likely as a third- or fourth-liner who can grind it out and win most of his battles, but he’ll be a good one at that. He’s the type of guy every team wants come playoff time.”

“Mutryn is a power winger who battles at the net front and extends plays in the hard areas of the ice. He contributed 2G-3A in five games at the U18 World Championship. I appreciate Mutryn’s overall character. He’s a team first prospect who was whistled for 87 penalty minutes. Mutryn is headed to Boston College next season.”

“A July 2008 birthday, he has a pro frame already and a strong skating stride. He’s committed to Boston College, plays a committed two-way game and is competitive. He’s quite physical, regularly knocking opposing players over. His wall play and cycle game are both effective. 

He has learned to play the net front on the PP well over the last two years and shows some touch and feel around the net and sliding passes through the crease. Mutryn’s offense and playmaking aren’t ever going to be defining attributes but he just looks like he’s going to be a bottom-six NHLer. He’ll make the occasional play at pace as well.”
