Scouting Report
Proved to be a big-game performer in the junior ranks, winning MVP honors at the 2023 Memorial Cup. Despite his smallish frame, he displays good energy and gumption on the ice. He is not afraid to dish out hits, or take punishment in order to make plays on offense. Can he become an impact forward at the highest level? The jury is out.
Long Range Potential: Energetic offensive forward.
