Scouting Report
The sixth-round pick in the 2015 NHL Draft has worked hard to show scouts that he probably should have been picked higher. He is a good playmaker who can also finish when he gets the chance. Put up good offensive numbers in both college hockey and the AHL, but will have to become more consistent on offense in order to earn more ice time at the NHL level. Filling out his big frame would not hurt, either. His defensive game is beyond reproach.
Long Range Potential: Solid, useful forward.
