Scouting Report
Played a sound up-and-down game and possessed checking capability. Worked as hard as anybody on the ice. Was a rather versatile player to have around in the NHL. Did not have enough finishing skills to put up good numbers in the NHL. Could have used a little more size and strength to get the upper hand on big defensemen.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, industrious energy forward.
