Yeah his straight line speed is fine, especially for a guy with his bulk he looks like a freight train. Its his overall maneuverability, edgework, balance etc that looks like it needs some work. Like I said I watch him and sometimes it honestly looks like they forgot to sharpen his skates. He's performing well as a rookie and clearly has good work ethic and drive so if they were to hook him up with a good skating coach like Bo got, I think he'd absolutely take off.
