Scouting Report
The late-blooming forward has a compete level that helps him overcome a lack of size to win his share of puck battles. Can acquit himself adequately on offensive lines, but is probably better suited to a checking role. Must make sure he plays with an attacking mentality to compensate for his lack of high-end skills.
Long Range Potential: Versatile depth forward.
