In his draft-eligible campaign, he produced at over a point-per-game clip with Tolpar Ufa of the MHL (Russian junior league). Lacks optimum size but makes up for it with a feisty attitude and a nasty component to his overall game. Can score goals with frequency and owns excellent offensive instincts. Not only does he know where to go in order to score goals, but he is also ever willing to go there and fight for space among the trees surrounding him. Will need to learn how to play tighter defense without the puck and in his own zone. Also needs to become a more consistent threat. | |
Long Range Potential: | Dynamic, feisty scoring winger with upside. |
