Scouting Report
A tremendous skater, he was a high-scoring forward in junior hockey and the AHL, but is still trying to put all the pieces together as he enters his NHL prime. He is a creative playmaker who also has a good shot and can finish at the net. Is excellent in shootouts. Still needs to add strength to win more puck battles and create additional space. Consistency eludes him.
Long Range Potential: Inconsistent scoring winger.
