Scouting Report

Assets
  • Plays a sound up-and-down game and possesses two-way capability. Works as hard as anybody on the ice. Has untapped power forward potential. Can line up at all three forward positions and play any role up front.
Flaws
  • Does not have enough finishing skills to put up huge numbers in the NHL. Could still use a little more strength in order to get the upper hand on big, physical defensemen.
Career Potential
  • Industrious two-way forward.
