I don’t really think his skating is that bad. He’s not fast but he’s super strong on his skates and he’s able to keep up with the other teams top players defensively. His skating seemed a lot worse last year, and while his acceleration could get a lot better his top speed is more a less sub par/ average. I think he has improved in this area in less than a year and I’m excited to see how much his skating will improve with another 2-3 years of development and off season training.
