Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has a very good shot, and he loves to use it early and often. Also boasts very good size, which he uses effectively in the corners and in front of the net. Is a versatile winger.
Flaws
  • Doesn't play with a lot of physical aggression, so he lacks that element in his game to be considered a true power forward.
Career Potential
  • Big scoring winger.
