An energy provider who brings better than average skill and ability to produce offense
Benefits from playing up in the lineup with #34 and #16 but he has earned the right to keep the role. Goes to the hard areas. Has some grease. Willing to push back.
He's involved and competes. Was used regular shift and on the power play in his first full year in the NHL in 21/22 and produced offensively. Has the ability and approach to play up and down the lineup but isn't the kind of player that will drive a line.
