Scouting Report
Still skates well and has good scoring instincts as he nears his mid-30s, though he has never lived up to being the sixth player selected in the 2006 NHL Draft. A good playmaker who should probably shoot more, he is fairly responsible defensively and can play both center and wing. Inconsistency has been a problem throughout his NHL career.
Long Range Potential: Useful veteran forward with consistency issues.
