Czarnik does not fore check well, or win a lot of board battles.
Czarnik to me is a prototypical open ice player. I don't have a problem with that, but to find success in that role, you need to make the most of the space you are given when you have the puck, and be able to put the puck into open ice well. Moreover, you need to defend passing lanes well. It is debatable if he has been effective in doing that.
