Note: Reports prior to Sept 2023 were originally graded out of ten, and also included additional categories that have been merged into the current categories.
This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

Big. Strong. High end compete. Never goes away. Bulk of his ice time comes at ES and PP
Equally comfortable working the wall on the PP or as the middle bumper.
Skating has evolved to the point he's a threat off the rush and backs opponents off their blue line.
Trending 2F.

AVG TOI (12:42) His ice time ranges depending on the special teams game. Mostly used at ES and occasionally one of the PP units in NY. Middle bumper on the PP. Long reach extends plays. Distributes. Pucks to the net quickly in traffic. A big body who skates well. Long stride in open ice. Competes. Willing to take pucks to the net off the rush. Below the goal line he can extend plays. Three zone detail is relatively sound. He's not a perfect player but he's young and has a foundation of size, skill, and compete that should only improve.
