He’s a big young man with plenty of growth left, very smart. He’s got incredible character, skates well for a big man, will only get stronger on his edges as he gets on the program, he’s breakaway speed is underrated. He’s a puck possession monster and players struggle to get it away from him both on the half wall and in the corners. His wing span and hockey iq make his defensive play very sound.
Members of the scouting group didn’t think he would be available. Thought he would be taken by 10-15.
