Scouting Report
Has a massive frame, so he should play at well over 200 pounds when he fills out. Shoots the puck with aplomb, and he also knows where to go to score goals. Has a lot of power forward potential, but must get stronger in order to dominate along the wall at the highest level. Also needs to work on his skating stride so as to maximize output in the NHL.
Long Range Potential: Power forward.
