Scouting Report:

Vincent has his strengths in the offensive zone. He has good puckhandling skills and keeps control over the puck also when going full speed. His hands are good and he has a good quickness .with the puck. He is an average skater and his shot would be average, however he needs to use it more and create more scoring chances. However, he protects the puck well but needs to bring himself in better shooting position and find the open ice to create offence. Vincent clearly needs to work on his play away from the puck especially in the defensive zone. Too many times he is just a spectator and anticipating on breakaway plays. His passing skills are good, especially his receiving pass skills are more than average.

NHL Potential: Sniper if he uses his shot more often to create scoring chances

Style compares to: Benoit Pouliot
