Scouting Report
Displayed excellent instincts at both ends of the ice. Could line up at both center and wing. Was good on face-offs and when killing penalties. Had good hand/eye coordination. Did not display enough offensive consistency. Was somewhat fragile and injury-prone, and he could have used even more bulk to help with the rigors of the National Hockey League schedule.
Long Range Potential: Versatile, two-way forward, when healthy.
