Backup goaltender who has had success at the minor league level but it hasn't yet translated to consistent results in the NHL.
Big body. Butterfly style. Average gloves. There are times he struggles to catch pucks clean, resulting in second chances against in high danger areas.
Size is an asset when pucks find him through traffic.
Lateral quickness is adequate for the speed of the NHL but has room to improve.
Still relatively young and developing. Full 60 minutes focus / big stops / has room to go to another level of consistency.
