Scouting Report

Assets
  • Has the size and strength to play an up-and-down game from the wing. Thrives in getting opponents under their skin, and he also loves the rough going. Can also drop the gloves.
Flaws
  • Doesn't have the hands to evolve into a power forward. Will sometimes make bad decisions on the ice due to a lack of discipline.
Career Potential
  • Agitating role player.
