Yes, his foot speed still needs work. Still gets caught a half/full step behind too often and has to play catch up. This can be improved, though. Only reason this doesn't hurt him more is his hockey sense is rather good.
Also doesn't use his frame as effectively as he could. Don't think he's suddenly going to develop a checking game, but could use his body more, especially defensively. Offensively, he looks like a power forward at times when he uses his frame to force a zone entry.
Basically your prototypical big bodied Slovak.
