Scouting Report
In his younger years, he was one of the NHL's most dangerous shooters on the power play; he was great at planting himself in front of the net and making his still available for rebounds, deflections or tap-in goals. Was also an energetic, physical presence who went to the dirty areas in front of the net. Worked hard and was a leader on and off the ice, but lacked creativity on offense. Would also drop the gloves if required.
Long Range Potential: Physical winger with solid scoring ability.
