Contract

Drafted
2015 round 7 #190 overall by San Jose Sharks

An offensively gifted power center who takes the game as it comes to him. Good hockey sense and possesses the positive character traits that indicate versatility in a lineup; scouts look for these intangibles in players. Decent skating ability, but knows what he can and can't do. Knows how to direct plays and realizes when and how he can step in to make a difference - whether it be through a little bit of rough stuff or with a clutch goal. All-in-all, the type of well-rounded player who can compliment his linemates well, and knows how to make an impact in a game. (Curtis Joe, EP 2014)
