An offensively skilled forward who does many little things needed to win. Works hard with and without the puck. Digs in the corners and always seems to be in the right position where the puck finds him. Has a good shot but composure and smarts are questionable as he often makes the wrong play at the wrong time. Seems to read the play well at other times and anticipates well. Willing to get his nose dirty and shows some solid character. (May 2010)
