Small at six foot by NHL standards, this youngster is still growing. Has a calm in control presence, flexibility, and up and down quickness. Stays in control with excellent balance. Squares up on shooters and absorbs shots with his body and pads. Athletic and doesn’t waste his motion just stays ready to react. NHL staffs will have to convince themselves he IS going to get bigger in this era where 6’2” goalie is considered average or undersized.
