An opportunistic forward who has a good work ethic…plays solid in all thee zones and is willing to do the little things a team needs to win… has decent hands and vision to make plays…is solid coming back on the backcheck and plays a consistently solid checking game…is quick and skates well. Has less than average size and does not always play with intensity…has limited offensive upside because of a lack of vision and creativity…can overhand the puck at times. (May 2009)
