A speedy winger who is creative with the puck and possesses strong offensive instincts. Moves around the offensive zone with the puck on his stick as if it were attached. Has good vision and makes consistently ac- curate passes. Also has a very strong shot. Not a finisher nor a playmaker but instead can do it all well. Draws defenders to himself instinctively. Shows a grittiness and willingness to work the corners against bigger strong competition despite knowing he will take punishment. Needs to improve his strength and defensive play. (May 2010)
