Scouting Report:
A very powerful two-way forward who works very hard in both ends of the ice and possesses an over average skating balance. Listed at 6'1 and 212 lbs, he uses all of his big frame to protect the puck very well and to play effectively along the boards in battles. One of the more NHL ready players in this years draft in terms of strength and hard to knock off the puck. Is a very agile skater and has extremely powerful strides plus good top speed but could improve his foot-speed. His shot power is decent, he could work on his accuracy though. Might not posses high end offensive skills but his tremendous work ethic and willingness to do whatever is needed to win is making him the player all coaches want to have.                       

NHL Potential: Two-way power forward with good work ethic and powerful skating.  

Style compares to: Brandon Dubinsky
