Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has tremendous size for the wing position, as well as good wheels for a big guy. Controls the puck effectively in the corners and can play on either wing. Possesses a good scoring touch.
Flaws
  • Still needs a little more work on his defensive-zone coverage. Should also use his size more frequently so as to become more intimidating to play against.
Career Potential
  • Power forward.
