Scouting Report
Is big and strong, with an excellent shot. Can take the puck to the net or set up teammates for scoring opportunities. Is fast enough to use his imposing size effectively. His NHL career has been slowed by a few serious injuries, but he has all the tools to be a top-level power forward when healthy.
Long Range Potential: Strong, skilled power winger.
