A jack-of-all-trades type of forward. Has the skill to contribute offensively on occasion but not regularly. Has the size and physical strength to go to war on the boards or in front of the net. Has the defensive awareness to play a strong two-way game and plays with good intensity. Shows some good smarts and decision making with and without the puck. A heart and soul type player that all teams need to win with. (May 2010)
