Scouting Report

Assets
  • Boasts excellent playmaking ability, great hands and an uncanny way of getting into openings. His hockey sense and defensive acumen are off the charts. Can line up either at center or wing. Excels on face-offs.
Flaws
  • Is prone to the occasional scoring slump. Since he's only 5-11, 195 pounds, his body can wear down over the course of the long season.
Career Potential
  • Elite two-way forward.
