Plays a solid two-way game from either wing position. Can be rather elusive in the offensive zone and is not easy to defend against because of his shiftiness and overall skating ability. Displays a strong hockey IQ and great offensive instincts. In order to maximize his scoring output at the highest level, he will need to add more bulk and get physically stronger. Also, he needs to adjust to the North American game (he tends to play a very east-west style, while most coaches in the NHL these days preach north-south hockey). | |
Long Range Potential: | Slick, versatile two-way winger with upside. |
