Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is extremely tough to get a read on from a shooter's perspective because he's unpredictable. Plays a very active, ultra-unorthodox style. Can get red-hot for long stretches and has a lightning-fast catching hand. Loves a heavy workload and often makes highlight-reel stops.
Flaws
  • Tends to struggle with his lateral mobility. When he's cold, he also loses his focus. That's a double-whammy. Needs to show greater consistency, specifically in those two critical areas. He's also showing signs of decline.
Career Potential
  • Quality, unorthodox goaltender.
