Baker is one of those smaller defenders you want on your roster for several reasons. First, he matches up well with smaller, quicker dodgers. He likes to meet them outside the box or in the corners, where he has the straight-line speed to run with them and stay glued through changes of direction. That speed also shows up in the clear and when he pushes in transition. When Baker gets his stick in a passing lane or comes up with a loose ball, he is looking to go. The final piece of his game, and what gets him noticed most, is his motor. You will see him flying off the wings on face-offs, working between the lines, and beating attackmen to the endline on shots. He is the type of player who gets a sideline juiced and can help swing momentum.
