Scouting Report

Assets
  • Forechecks well and brings a lunch-pail mentality to the arena. Often provides an energy boost for his team and has a decent set of hands. Is fearless and always willing to pay the price for his team.
Flaws
  • Has suspect skating ability, which has prevented him from becoming an all-star at the NHL level. His agitating qualities have lessened with age, as injuries have mounted.
Career Potential
  • Veteran agitating winger.
