A dynamic two-way center with speed and creativity to burn. Consistently displays elite-level skating ability, and an astonishing top speed. Sees the ice very well and is constantly looking to either score or make the right play. The confidence he has in his abilities lets him do things with the puck that other players wouldn't even try. Skillful puckhandling skills paired with a deceptively accurate shot make him a lethal scoring threat in all situations. His will to compete and ultimately win fuels his defensive game; he tracks the puck well and creates turnovers. All-in-all, a highly skilled, proactive forward that has the capacity to dominate in all three zones.
