Right-handed Left Wing is one of the hardest shooting kids in the draft class. Exploded on to the draft lists after the U-18s. An unknown who comes with high end skill and lots to like along with many non-endearing facets. A playmaker who is an outstanding stickhandler and puck possessor at top speed, powerful skater with outstanding hand-eye co-ordination, and a incredible shooter who launches missile with his wrist snaps and whose one timer is rocket from the circles. Seems to be playing at a pace a notch above all others. Great stop/start to his feet. While watching you will also see a individualistic player in a team game, who wants the puck and opportunities to be all his. On the rush, he doesn't use his teammates as effective options and instead tries to flat and dash and do it all. Where leaving his defensive zone his choice is not weigh and use his passing options and almost always makes the puck his personal duty, not using simple passes that avoid many of the turnovers his excessive handling causes. This is prospect that may end up being special when he rounds out his game. There is no denying he has a shot harder than most hockey players, no matter if the are NHLers or not.
