Scouting Report
Has great on-ice vision and offensive creativity. Can beat defenders one on one. Is equally adept at finishing off plays or setting up linemates. Is defensively responsible and a good team leader. Lacks ideal NHL size (6-0, 180 pounds) and strength, which has somewhat hindered his ability to perform at an even higher level. Can also wear down over the course of the 82-game season.
Long Range Potential: Versatile veteran winger and leader in decline.
