Scouting Report

Assets
  • Works very hard. Likes to antagonize the opposition and is also an occasional combatant. Provides energy and grit to any lineup. Has a decent two-way game.
Flaws
  • Doesn't possess high-end skills, so he'll never be confused with a talented top-six forward at the NHL level. Must show greater consistency and discipline.
Career Potential
  • Agitating winger.
