Scouting Report
Assets: Has tremendous puck-handling and one-on-one skills. Is strong on his skates, so he is good at puck protection and also battling along the boards. Oozes scoring ability due to a great shot and awesome sense of anticipation.
Flaws: Still needs to hone his two-way game for the NHL level, since he is not as good without the puck as he is with it. Also, since opposing teams tend to target him, he needs to prove he can play with greater consistency.
Career Potential: Elite scoring winger.
