Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a huge frame, which helps him cover up most of the net. Handles the puck very well as a one-man breakout out of danger.
Flaws
  • Is still somewhat raw and needs to improve his coordination and flexibility. Durability is also an issue, especially if used too frequently.
Career Potential
  • No. 1 goaltender.
