I watched him a lot in Oshawa last year, I know he's had a bit of an off year with the Marlies and he hurt his shoulder in the outdoor game but I'm still hoping he gets a fair shot.
He's not a FAST skater by any means but he's still a good skater, especially considering his size. He seems to have dropped some weight in the off-season, he looks a bit smaller when I watch him with the Marlies, but make no mistake he is a big kid.
I don't know about Lucic comparisons anymore. He's a better skater than Lucic but he'll never have the offensive touch around the net that Looch has. I think he could be a Cam Neely type player.
If nothing else, he can make it as a tough guy. He's been one of the toughest players in every league he's played in and that'll eventually translate in the NHL. But I do hope he turns into a fringe second-line guy.
Big forwards who can hit, fight and score are gonna be a premium in the NHL moving forward, if we develop them properly we could have two of them in Biggs and Gauthier.
