Smaller WHL winger who may blossom into an NHLer. Despite his size, he plays bigger. Reads the ice very well, and has first step quickness, and can combine it with willingness to initiate scrums and aggression., but many times does not. Highly competitive, shifty and agile. Can be elusive on the attack because he plays fast and needs little time to make the correct decisions in play. Needs to be a little more consistent game to game, shift to shift. Not a lock, but may develop into an NHLer.
