SCOUTING REPORT
Undersized fireball with terrific balance and agility. Surprisingly strong on the puck and his pins in tight traffic. His tight edging separates him from defenders while on the attack, and he reads the situation well to hit linemates with passes, or to find the soft area to receive the puck with his quick bursts in. His shifty moves make the opposition start losing who their assignment is. Does much of the heavy forechecking too. Has plenty of room to build up his thin frame, and he already has confidence making tight turns and good decisions on the attack.
