Scouting Report
Had excellent size. Often played as a poor man's version of a power forward. Could play some center, as well as wing, and was also willing to stick up for teammates. Dropped the gloves with anyone. Would go into prolonged scoring slumps, which hurt his ability to see greater ice time. Could take a few too many bad penalties during the season. His skating was below-average by NHL standards.
Long Range Potential: Physical, versatile role player.
