Cory Gurski

Team: Buffalo Jr. Sabres Midget Major AAA

Position: Forward

Overall Player Rating: B+

Skating ability: Above average

Shooting ability: Above average

Passing ability: Average

Weakness: Needs to make better decisions with the puck.

Stats: In 12 games this season, Gurski has six goals, five assists and four penalty minutes for the Sabres.

Potential: Gurski played Junior ‘B” last season but has made the transition to the Tier 1 league very well. He’s a very good skater, has a hard shot and is not afraid to play physical when need be. One drawback in his game seems to be his puck handling skills, which could use some tweaking. Regardless, Gurski is opening a lot of eyes thus far as a Jr. Sabre.
