Scouting Report
Can score goals and also be a physical presence on the ice. Has a huge frame and will play at well over 210 pounds at the NHL level when he fully develops. Has the potential to become an intimidating force. Needs to add significant bulk in order to maximize his power forward upside at the highest level. Also, he needs more work on his playmaking and overall defensive game. Must avoid taking bad penalties.
Long Range Potential: Mammoth power forward with upside.
