Scouting Report

Assets
  • Is one of hockey's most dedicated players. Loves to battle for loose pucks and crash the net with authority. Has soft hands and is still a tough customer.
Flaws
  • Injuries are always a concern with him, especially now that he's over 40. His highly aggressive play is a quality but it does also lead to bad penalties, at times.
Career Potential
  • Warhorse winger with offensive ability.
