Scouting Report
The late-blooming forward was a solid scorer in college hockey but has not shown that kind of offense since turning pro. Injury issues, likely because of a lack of size, have limited his opportunities at the NHL level. He is a good skater who can line up anywhere up front, but his play away from the puck remains a work in progress.
Long Range Potential: Organizational depth forward.
