Drury and Laviolette Must Go
I've only seen him at center. To me, he's a mid rounder, but the type of player who'll probably get to the NHL as a mid rounder. Very safe, defensive oriented player. Hard working, good skater, very smart, nice size, I'd project him safely as like a bottom 6 player. His offense doesn't stand out, good or bad against kids, which probably isn't the greatest thing, given a lot of players who's offensive game does stand out won't have the offense to get to the NHL. I wouldn't expect much offensively from him at the next level, maybe a complimentary 3rd line player if he hits his ceiling. If he hits his floor, he's a 4th liner, but I think he's an NHL'er. Good player, won't get anywhere near the attention as some of his teammates, but he has almost as good of a chance to get to the NHL as any of them.
