Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is still a capable penalty-killer and shutdown pivot. Has sound fundamentals and an excellent work ethic. Always leads by example and is an excellent teammate. Is also good on face-offs.
Flaws
  • Doesn't put up big offensive numbers in the NHL, which makes him mostly a bottom six forward candidate, especially at this late stage of his career. Can go long stretches without a point.
Career Potential
  • Veteran checking center and leader.
