SCOUTING REPORT

Brother of Alex, plays a style similar to his brother that grits out scoring looks and goal production using his size, controlled aggression and board battle wins. The large, framed winger arguably has the best tools of the forwrads on his USA-8 team and can get to his top gear quickly for a big guy. He projects as a longer term project than his brother was because he has need to improve his hand, and his habits. He is very agile skater and able to slither out of piles with the puck, or nimble and instinctive enough to find a soft spot to receive a puck to finish a look. At times he is too causal and careless with his handles and decisions. Needs to be better at supporting the puck and taking better routes with his carries. Has good offensive instincts and although he was fourth in scoring on his club, he had only 15 golas and 30 points to show for it. Has a large frame that can carry lots more weight and muscle. Committed to Boston University, and will need that time to build on hos strengths and overcome his deficits.
