Scouting Report
Strengths: Is great positionally, and boasts
fast reflexes. Has added bulk to his small frame which has translated to
greater success.
|
Weaknesses: Halak is a bit on the small side and
needs to work on challenging shooters more often. Too often gets caught deep
in his net.

Projected Role: Backup Goalie
