Scouting Report

Assets	Passes the puck well and is extremely responsible in the defensive zone. Has a projectable frame and some offensive upside for the NHL game.
Flaws	Is not a natural goal-scorer, and is also not a physical player. Needs to adjust to life and hockey in North America in order to become a regular.
Career Potential	Top six forward.
