Scouting Report

Assets
  • Works his tail off shift after shift. Can play either wing or center. Loves to be down low in the corners, and is willing to pay the price to score goals. Will also fight, if necessary.
Flaws
  • Has had trouble avoiding injuries during his time in the NHL. Lacks speed and creativity, so his game is somewhat predictable over time.
Career Potential
  • Depth forward.
