Still an elite shooter. Teams know the puck will end up on his stick on the PP but continue to have a tough time defending against his back door one timer.
First three strides have power and can create separation. Occasionally an open ice threat off the rush. Plays a heavy game along the wall. Hard to defend.
Cuts corners in his zone at times and his shifts are occasionally too long but his elite goal scoring wins out.
