Scouting Report

Assets
  • Handles the puck with panache and can make spectacular saves. Is extremely athletic and a master of the poke-check. Moves well across the crease and has a flair for the dramatic.
Flaws
  • When he loses focus, he goes into a bit of tailspin that can last for several games. Can be beaten upstairs because he's undersized. Occasionally lets in a softie.
Career Potential
  • Puck-handling, veteran starting goaltender.
