Is a pure dangler with the puck. Displays a classic Russian skill set and is at his best when he has the puck on his blade skating down his off-wing (left), which is his natural side. His playmaking, creativity and shiftiness are all top-notch. At 5-9, 175 pounds, he is significantly undersized for the National Hockey League. Therefore, he needs to add more bulk and get a lot stronger in order to maximize production at the highest level. | |
Long Range Potential: | Diminutive but supremely talented playmaker with good upside. |
