Casey’s younger brother is a fluid skating, puck mover who plays a reliable game and is a minute muncher. At this juncture, he knows his biggest responsibility is clean the front, and clearing the puck to his shooting wingers. Excellent vision and hands are evident, and an extra gear, but tends to not ramp to top speed, instead plays quick, not fast., using fluidity and smarts to advance the game. Protects the front of his net. Has upside as an attacker and offensive generator and could develop into a weapon form the backend. Needs to add upper body strength and his ommittment to the University of Wisconsin may be his way to add it.
