Scouting Report
It should not come as a surprise that he is a talented sniper, since his father Yanic was one of the most prolific marksmen in CHL history. So, scoring goals runs in the family. Has a strong lower base, so he is not easy to bump off the puck. Can play both center and wing, though his goal-scoring prowess and lack of elite playmaking skills could make him a permanent winger at the highest level. Skates a bit better than his father did, so his transition to the pro game should be slightly more seamless. Displays good hockey sense and always seems to be in the right place at the right time. His pedigree should help him in the pros.
Long Range Potential: Talented, versatile goal-scoring forward with upside.
