Scouting Report
A star scoring forward at Harvard University, he has yet to justify the hoopla that greeted his decision to become a free agent after college hockey. Has the size to play in traffic and grind in the corners, but it is his goal-scoring ability that got him to the NHL. He needs even more work on his play away from the puck and become more of a physical player. Can play either wing position.
Long Range Potential: Depth winger.
