Scouting Report
One of the best Danish players in NHL history, he does not mind getting his nose dirty in front of the net. Is a sound defensive center who can kill penalties. Will never put up huge numbers offensively, but has the skills and grit to reach double figures in goals on a regular basis. Is not a great playmaker and needs to be more consistent, overall.
Long Range Potential: Veteran two-way center.
