Ok.
I'll agree with the slow skater part. He has pretty good hands and a very good shot.
The only problem with Lats is my opinion is that his release is very slow(too bad because he has a good shot) and he doesn't have good mobility, which is why he should stop playing a finesse game.
Lats has shown that when he just plays a simple meat and potatoes game, that is play hard along the boards and stay around the crease that he's able to provide good secondary offense.
