Highlights
1-time NCAA (East) Second All-American Team 1

A good-sized winger who can play center, too. Has nice hands and playmaking ability. Useful on the penalty kill as well as the powerplay.
- Ulf Andersson, EP

Update: Played center for the entire 13/14 season, was particularly useful on the power play.
- Kirill Bystrov, EP
