Scouting Report
A brilliant, explosive skater with multiple gears, he also sports exceptional penalty-killing prowess, decent hands and some offensive acumen. Can shoot the puck with aplomb and play either wing, too. Is somewhat smallish in stature and can play a soft game without the puck on his stick. Is now more committed than he was earlier in his career but still lacks the consistency needed to excel in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Ultra-fast, inconsistent veteran winger.
