Scouting Report

Strengths: 

Has a very projectable frame and loads of offensive ability. Can score goals or set up linemates, and is equally adept at playing on either side of center.

Weaknesses: 

Lacks game-to-game consistency. Is not a great defender and doesn't use his 6-3, 202-pound frame enough to his advantage.

Projection: 

Scoring line winger
