He is very shifty. Very, very shifty.
He is often the first one to a puck and rightfully so. His acceleration is top notch and it’s hard not to notice his little legs moving as fast as they do. Short powerful strides. He needs that extra time in order to not be knocked off the puck right away.
He is also seemingly constantly moving. He is wonderful at noticing spacing in all ends of the ice in order to maximize his ability to capitalize on a loose puck.
