Big OJHL winger show has shown scoring ability and exhibited good acceleration, and edging that facilitates his quick turns on the attack. Displays size, speed, a good hockey IQ, and a strong compete level. One of the fastest skater's at the Tier 2 level in Canada and usually gets to looses before anyone else. Plays on both the power play and penalty kill. Needs to square up better on attackers but is a good battle area player who can extend plays using his frame and seems to always want (and have) the puck on his stick. With more weight and strength he will improve in all areas. Projects as a future F-1 forward, and has a current high ceiling mark as 3rd line forward.
