Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has exceptional vision and creativity on the ice. His offensive instincts are off the charts and he also likes to agitate.
Flaws
  • Still needs a lot of work in the defensive zone. Lacks bulk and is quite undersized by NHL standards. Isn't much of a goal-scorer.
Career Potential
  • Elite playmaker, but below-average goal-scorer.
