I’d be surprised if he goes undrafted, for sure. He excels at a clean breakout, very patient with the puck and finding a clean a first pass. Not a great shot, not super creative, but quality.
Thx for the feedback but what about his skating strides, speed and lateral movements? Hands coordination, vision?
I’m asking about his skating since most reports on him said his skating wasn’t great.

Above average speed, I’d say. Nothing that stood out to me as being either really good or really bad. He’s not going to wow anybody with his feet, but I don’t think it’s a liability, either. Here are all my notes on him:
