I've seen him a few times and have been impressed. The thing that strikes you are his hands, as the puck just sinks into and sticks to his stick blade. He could play with an egg and not crack it. Very soft hands and a great passer with good vision.
His stride is good, although he doesn't have top end speed yet. But when he does get creative, he widens his stance and changes directions very well. The kind of thing that freezes the defence and makes you sit up and take notice, because you don't see it too often. He creates and uses space well.
He also has good size, although he was timid in his first 12 games or so. But he has gotten much better as the season progresses.
Lahey, Alphonso and McGinn are all solid prospects that will be taken on the first day of their respective drafts.
Overall, the 67's are pretty loaded with young talent. It's a real wonder they are competing for a playoff space given how many 16/17 year olds on the team. It's another thing that makes Kilrea such a great coach (having Battochio and a few vets like Hulit, Talbot and Bickel also helps). But with so many young players, they are going to be a much better team in March, than they were in November, so look out come playoffs, as they could make some noise.
