Scouting Report

Assets
  • Now a veteran, he's poised and rarely gets rattled after giving up a bad goal. Has good agility and the cockiness needed to play between the pipes.
Flaws
  • Has always needed more meat on his bones. Tends to go into prolonged slumps, which has always hurt his ability to cement a starting gig in the NHL.
Career Potential
  • Quality backup goaltender and good teammate.
