I've really seen myself as a top scorer but more as role player. With my speed, I've gotten a lot of chances at the net, getting close in on the net, beating defensemen wide and getting breakaways. I like to call myself sort of a gritty player. I use my speed to get in there in the corners, but also I like to show a little bit of grit, get in there and throw the body around a little bit. I'm not the biggest guy out there, but I still like to throw a couple of hits.
