Scouting Report
Has good size and strong awareness on the ice. Can play either center or wing. Is valuable in penalty-killing situations and rather responsible on the ice. Is not much of a point producer (even at lower levels), so he is not a good candidate to play as a top-six forward at the National Hockey League level.
Long Range Potential: Big, strong defensive forward with a little upside.
