Scouting Report
Was shifty and a capable playmaker. Could line up at all three forward positions, which added a lot of value to any National Hockey League team. Was also an asset on special teams. Was a little lacking in terms of defensive acumen, which limited his overall effectiveness at the NHL level. Also lacked the size to win puck battles in the corners with consistency.
Long Range Potential: Skilled, versatile but undersized depth forward.
