“His physical element has increased drastically,” said Chicago Wolves coach Spiros Anastas. “How quick he closes, how hard he hits, he’s becoming more of a man. He still needs to continue to get better on his puck touches, which we worked on a lot with him last year, but it’s a confidence piece too. He wants to be in the NHL, he knows he can be and we have that belief in him too. Having a real strong camp, led by his confidence, will give him a good shot at a spot up here.”
