Scouting Report
Has excellent shiftiness and tremendous puck skills. Is a very creative playmaker who can also finish off plays himself. Is versatile enough to play either wing position and owns a projectable frame. Needs to get physically stronger (and fill out his 6-1 frame) to prove he can be a major point producer at the highest level. Must also improve his overall play whenever he does not have the puck.
Long Range Potential: Creative, highly talented scoring winger with good upside.
