Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has supreme offensive ability, tremendous speed, shiftiness and tenacity. Plays a sound two-way game and scores highlight-reel goals. Can play either wing position.
Flaws
  • Is rather injury-prone and a little undisciplined on the ice. Needs to do a better job of avoiding traffic, since his team needs him on the ice--not in the infirmary.
Career Potential
  • Gifted offensive but fragile winger.
