Scouting Report
The third player selected in the 2012 NHL Draft has seen his game decline markedly after a good start to his career. He is big, skates well and owns a lethal shot that beat goaltenders from almost anywhere in the offensive zone. Inconsistency and durability issues have plagued him, as has the lack of improvement in his play without the puck.
Long Range Potential: Skilled, inconsistent forward (when healthy).
