Scouting Report
Assets: Skates very well, has awesome hand/eye coordination and can score in a variety of ways. His one-timer when parked high in the slot is deadly. Displays solid playmaking and two-way acumen. Plays with enough grit and aggression to keep opponents honest.
Flaws: Needs more polish in the face-off circle, as well as continue to up his defensive-zone coverage (which is not bad at all). He is a shooter first and foremost, but could still improve his passing skills a tad to maximize production. Injuries are a big issue with him.
Career Potential: Elite sniper, when healthy.
