Scouting Report
Can kill penalties well at the National Hockey League level, plus he is also a decent face-off man. That keeps him around in the big league because he otherwise lacks offensive acumen. Can be handy when his team is shorthanded. Is a solid, low-maintenance teammate.
Long Range Potential: Depth defensive forward.
