Scouting Report

Assets:	Has an intriguing combination of size and versatility: he can play all three forward positions (and in any role). Owns a sneaky shot and some offensive ability. A courageous player, he's willing to pay the price in front of the net.
Flaws:	Doesn't use his 6-4, 207-pound frame nearly enough to maximize his all-round potential. Must show greater consistency from game to game Hasn't really found his National Hockey League niche, and perhaps he never will.
Career Potential:	Versatile, yet inconsistent forward.

David Moss helped the Phoenix Coyotes beat the Edmonton Oilers 3-1 on Wednesday.

Impact

Moss had a goal an assist, giving him 20 points in 38 games this season. His peripherals don't really make him quite good enough to be a significant factor fantasy-wise, but he's probably appreciated on an offensively deficient team like the Coyotes.
