Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is versatile, solid at both ends of the ice and great along the boards. Has underrated moves and a nose for the net.
Flaws
  • Takes so much punishment in front of the opposing goal that he is prone to wear and tear. Isn't a great passer, either.
Career Potential
  • Power forward.
