Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has one of the best combinations of quickness and hands in the NHL. Is an exceptionally smooth skater. Is underrated in terms of leadership. Can still pick a corner or blow by a defenseman.
Flaws
  • Struggles when playing in a defensive system. Needs a solid playmaker on his line to excel. Has lost some of his playmaking skills over time.
Career Potential
  • Aging goal-scorer and future Hall-of-Famer.
