Scouting Report
Owns good size and excellent offensive instincts. Can produce quality numbers at lower levels. Can also win a lot of face-offs, which adds value. Still needs a little more work in defensive-zone coverage, as well as more consistency on offense, in order to maximize ice time in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Big, solid center with some upside.
