Scouting Report
He is shooting the puck more as he grows more comfortable in the NHL, and his confidence continues to grow as he heads toward the prime of his career. He has all the skills to excel in the NHL: he is big (6’3”), an excellent skater with good hands, has a lot of hockey sense and a great work rate. Figures to get stronger as he matures.
Long Range Potential: Extremely talented sniper.
