Scouting Report:

A powerful winger with good size and strength who is using his body pretty well to make plays in his own zone as well as offensive zone. Is very good in corner battles and his physical play is excellent. Shows strength while protecting the puck and good work ethic also in his own zone. Backchecks well and is playing an important role defensively. While his defensive game is good, he needs to improve his offensive skills. Often without big impacts offensively because is lacking a good shot and his passing skills should improve also. Needs to shoot more and create scoring chances. All in all a power forward who plays a NA style of game who loves to use his body to make plays.    

NHL Potential: Power Forward. Plays solid defensive and physical game but needs to improve his offence. 

Style compares to: Adam Lowry

2. Protecting The Puck/Corner Battles

3. Pass accuracy

Scouting Report:

A winger with a great wrist and slapshot who loves to use it. His quick release makes it hard for goaltenders to track the shot. Uses all of his shot arsenal. Good first steps and speed but could be more agile. Has a good offensive mind and is always looking to put himself in a good shooting spot. Good play away from the puck in the offensive zone, though not in his own zone. Tends to make blind passes and turns the puck over too many times. Improved his physical play and is willing to use his body but still needs to use his size better in corner battles and while protecting the puck. Rather shoots than passes. Shows hockey sense and is making himself always available for a pass. His point production exploded this season and he elevated his game to a new level but this should be enjoyed with caution as he is on the teams most dominant offensive line together with 9th overall pick Nikolaj Ehlers. Overall though, he is one of the most improved players in this years draft and can be an offensive weapon with this shooting/scoring skills   

NHL Potential: Sniper. Has a very good shot and isn't afraid to use it. 

Style compares to: Ryan Johansen
