Scouting Report
The feisty forward gives it all he has on every shift, but a lack of size limits what he can do at the NHL level. Has never come close to being the point-per-game player he was in junior hockey, but he has some offensive instincts and two-way ability. Cannot afford the kind of inconsistency he has occasionally been guilty of.
Long Range Potential: Energetic, versatile winger.
