What he does have (again similar to Point) is a really quick brain. He reads the ice extremely well and finds passes that none of our current bottom group would find. If you look at the 2 assists he got against Washington on Sunday you will see what I mean. He was projected to go mid first round until he struggled with injury and ended up going 30th. There is a reason he was projected that high.

How is he at grinding and ringing the puck around the boards to the far side D?
