Donato scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flyers.
Scouting Report
The son of former NHL forward Ted Donato played for his father at Harvard University before turning pro. He is also a forward, and a little bigger than his dad, who has the creativity and hockey sense good scorers need at the NHL level. His skating is only OK; he lacks the extra gear that would make him a really dangerous scorer. Has had great success in shootouts, where his main assets can shine.
Long Range Potential: Versatile forward with a scoring touch.
