Scouting Report
The late bloomer has battled his way into the NHL and is working hard to stay there. Not overly tall, unlike many of today's NHL goaltenders, he makes up for his lack of size with determination and work ethic. Is also an excellent teammate who is comfortable in the role of a second banana in goal.
Long Range Potential: Backup goaltender.
