Traded to Red Deer from Swift Current but it really didn’t act as a wake up call for him be more consistent and motivated. Takes shifts and entire parts of games off, where he looks like he is going through the motions but never intending to try and be the man who make things happen. An NHL scouting staff will look at snippets and thing this is a future pro player, but there is a need lot long term growth and commitment for that goal to be close to reality.
