Third year eligible centre/forward. stands under six foot. His size and skating are what held him back a year ago, but has added girth and continues to add leg strength. His skating is improving and his an accomplish forechecker and threat to take the puck away. Has a really good shot, gets to rebounds, and makes sure the opponents get a chance to see it. Can play centre or wing on any line or situation. Not a high end puck handler or skater, so he also seems like a guy you draft and hope improves his skating and overall game.
