Scouting Report
He can score, he can pass, he can carry the puck, he has terrific speed and enough strength to shrug off opposing checkers. What he has to show more as he goes through his prime is that he can stay healthy (after missing chunks of time in his first few seasons and sitting out nearly a full year because of a neck injury that ended with disk-replacement surgery). Owns all the talent to be a top-level NHL center if he can stay on the ice.
Long Range Potential: Elite center (when healthy).
