Scouting Report
Has great skating ability and acceleration, so he is a force on the forecheck and also in penalty-killing situations. Owns a solid frame and power forward tendencies. Is improving his anticipation and hockey sense. Might never be a big scorer in the National Hockey League, so he may always be limited to a bottom-six forward role at the highest level. Must get stronger and fill out his big frame in order to thrive in the big league.
Long Range Potential: Speedy power forward with some upside.
