A German-born centre that is someone to potentially watch out for next year's draft. He has average height for the NHL being at 184 cm (6'0"), but still needs to stock up his light weight if he wants to make it further at 70 kg (154 lbs). However, what he lacks in frame he makes up for it in talent as he's one of the smartest players recently selected in the 2018 import drafted. He plays hard in all three zones, is superb defencively, and is a wonderful playemaker due to his vision and hockey sense. In this sense after watching a handful of his games he reminds me of a Derek Stepan/Anthony Beauvillier type of player - perhaps could be a bit more talented due to his smarts.
He just committed to the Hamilton Bulldogs, so it will be interesting in how well he cope's with the physicality because the talent is definitely there to be considered a top 62 player.
