Craig Button's Analysis
"Great skater who can chew up ice quickly. Beats pressure and is very good in transition. Uses skating to get into opponent's' space and plays with a territorial approach. Will play physically and has the ability to contribute offensively. Nice two-way blend."
Projection: Top 3, Two-Way D
