Powered By
The Pro Hockey Group
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.

Power / Finesse forward who has found a home on the Kings top line with Kopitar and Kempe
Compliments his line mates.
Extends plays by absorbing contact and muscling his way through opponents.
Heavy / hard to contain working off the cycle and heading to the net.
Skates very well for his stature. When he has a head of steam, in transition, he gives opponents all they can handle.
Sometimes it takes big/power forwards longer to adapt to the NHL game.
Just scratching the surface. Logs 15:00 TOI - ES and PP.
There's, at least, another level of offense on the horizon.
Hard to play against. Imposing.
