Birthplace: Ottawa, ON | Acquired: Traded from Ottawa (February 24, 2020)
Assets: An energetic and versatile forward, he works very hard at both ends of the ice. Can play both center and wing, which adds to his overall value. Is very effective as both an agitator and penalty-killer.
Flaws: Lacks size at only 5-10, 180 pounds. Isn’t a major scorer, even at lower levels, so he must constantly find his niche at the National Hockey League level. Can wear down if used a little too much in the NHL.
Career potential: Versatile, two-way energy center.
