Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has tremendous size for a goaltender. Shows a good glove hand and the ability to play the puck effectively. Has settled nicely into a backup role.
Flaws
  • Needs more work on his quickness and ability to recover when he's on the ground. Is too inconsistent, which is why he failed as a starting goalkeeper.
Career Potential
  • Quality backup goaltender.
